POSSUM'S ZESTY MEATLOAF
This is the best I can come to Mom's meatloaf, to which I have to say there is no equal. But hey, I tried. :) I've found that dusting the top of the meatloaf with a generous portion of black pepper, and then adding a light topping of ketchup for the last 20 minutes adds a nice spicy glazed topping to the meatloaf. To totally make this the main dish of a comfort meal, serve with a hearty helping of either garlic mashed potatoes or mac & cheese.
