Notes
Be sure to mix the meat really well. This is a very moist meatloaf recipe so under mixing can cause the meatloaf to be too soft/mushy.
In case your meatloaf is falling apart then you may not have used enough binding ingredients. This recipe calls for plenty of breadcrumbs. It may be over baked. Fifty five minutes is all it takes. Or, you sliced into it while it was still too hot. I always let my meatloaf cool for 10 minutes before slicing into it.
