Hmm, now that’s different. I’ll have to try that! 🙂
I think I must have dreamt this one yet it turned out very tasty! Thanks Linda!
Nice recipe 🙂
Thanks!
Oh, boy, that looks so good … maybe I can get my husband to make it for us tonight!
Thanks! Pretty easy and quick! I hope he does!
Thank you!
Oh my gosh! You are killing us now! We have to try this!
This was the first one I made. I thought I would try it with just cheese, pepperoni and sauce inside to see how it would turn out. Since it turned out good I may add mushrooms, onions etc. next time. I think the veggies will need to be cooked first though. It’s fun creating new recipes.
We love meatloaf and I bet the pepperoni gives it a nice flavor. Can’t wait to try it.
Thanks it was a nice change to regular meatloaf!
