Since I've moved, I've been on a cooking freenzy. I stay on the internet trying to find recipes. I was just over at Pserendipity's spot and she was posting about recipes, go figure!? Anyway, last night I cooked a meatloaf. I've never been a big meatloaf fan, partly because I could never get mine to come out right! I don't eat beef so I use turkey and could never find the right combination of ingredients to make it come out tasty and loafy...mine always came out bland and tooo moist...falling a part moist. So yesterday, I found a recipe called Brown Sugar Meatloaf that had high reviews from "the people"...and one lady said the ingredients worked just fine with ground turkey. So I printed it and dashed off to the grocery store for the items I needed. Boy oh boy, that meatloaf was a smash hit. I think it was the ginger. Deeeeeelicious!
Here's the recipe if you are interested and if you have any good casserole dishes you wouldn't mind sharing, please let a sister know?
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup ketchup
1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
3/4 cup milk
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 small onion, chopped (I used Lipton's Onion Soup/1 package)
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
3/4 cup finely crushed saltine cracker crumbs (I used seasoned bread crumbs)
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 5x9 inch loaf pan.
Press the brown sugar in the bottom of the prepared loaf pan and spread the ketchup over the sugar.
In a mixing bowl, mix thoroughly all remaining ingredients and shape into a loaf. Place on top of the ketchup.
Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour or until juices are clear.

I'm gonna try this meatloaf but I have a suggestion. A friend of mine makes the best meatloaf ever and she puts shredded carrots or potatoes in hers. Yummy. So I hope you don't mind if I alter your recipe a little.
