This is a spicy spin on an old favorite! Turn up the heat on this zesty meatloaf by adding hot green chilies or chipotle peppers. Or swap the tomato sauce for your favorite hot salsa. Great dish to make ahead and freeze.

Gosh this sounds good too, bookmarking it to make, bet it makes good sandwiches with the leftovers, that is if there is any leftover LOL You have my rating of 5


I made this and my family said it was "fine". It tasted good, all was eaten but the general idea was that it was nothing out of the ordinary and not necessarily something they would request in the future. Perhaps the flavours were not intense enough; I found it mildly flavourful myself.


I added more cumin and garlic powder and it was awesome and yes, it makes a really good sandwich!
