The Healthy Good for You Meatloaf image

I came up with this recipe in the attempts to make foods healthier and vitamin enriched. As we approach the underbelly of middle age (50's) there is agreement to eat healthier, live longer, and enjoy nature's bounty. However, this is an old fashioned family comfort food for all ages. Meatloaf is not always high on the list of healthy food but I figured I could doctor it up some.. Here is what I came up with. For moms and dads whose children say NOT SPINACH, ewwwwwwweeeeeee this is a great way to get that iron and antioxidant veggie into them. This recipe can also be made in to hamburgers for the BBQ. Very simple to prepare all in 1 dish

This meatloaf was a bit bland. I think I'll try adding some more seasoning next time.
