Having a favorite for dinner. Meatloaf, mashed potatoes and gravy. I usually have a sandwich on these hot summer days. But needed a little break today. I cooked a meatloaf in the oven. Added gravy and mashed potatoes. Called it dinner. During the winter I usually add another vegetable and bread. But eating a little lighter on these hot summer days. What is on your dinner plate tonight?

I love a good meatloaf, but mine don't always turn out good!

@CarolDM Well, most things I cook are good, I guess, but even though I try to make meatloaf the same way, it just never turns out the same!! What am I doing wrong? Do you have a good tried and true recipe?

Your dinner looks excellent. It's summer, it's hot, we had smoked salmon with sour cream and dill bread.

That sounds delicious. I haven't fixed a meatloaf in a while. I need to put that on the menu. We are having pork chops, turnip greens and another veggie but I'm not sure what yet.

@CarolDM I don't use my oven very much at all during the summer. And I try to eat lighter, although that doesn't always happen.

@hardtimes1958 yes. I used to read here that someone cooks meatloaf and I only thought meatloaf was in can. I will try cooking that soon.

I eat lighter on warm Summer Nights as well. It looks delicious! I'd stop by, but I have softball practice in a couple of hours. Not sure what I'll eat for dinner.

Oh well, I could keep it warm for you but that probably wouldn't work either.

I love meatloaf. In fact, I like anything made with mince. I wonder why that is?

@CarolDM I thought about it and I have not had schnitzel in so long that I will get that and have that after I finish my chicken so meatloaf will have to wait.

I love meat loaf. I like for dinner with mashed potatoes. And I like it the next day eating the leftovers as a sandwich. Haven't decided what's for dinner yet. It might be Ramen noodles. I add onions and cabbage to mine.
