@Luvsmyfam yes. Let's just say I can cross that off my bucket list.

Yes. That's the way I make meatloaf every single time I make it. We think it's good!

What flavor of stove top do they suggest? I can see how it could work, bread crumbs and spices, but I would not want it to have a chicken or turkey flavoring.

If it's mixed with the meat, it would work like bread crumbs and I bet you can't even taste it. The beef flavor would overpower it.

I've used both -- whichever I have on hand. The meatloaf does not taste like chicken or turkey, just flavorful meatloaf.

I'd use Stove Top Savory Herbs dressing mix if adding to a meat recipe. No poultry flavorings added.

Actually, I prefer Pepperidge Farm herb dressing mix and crush up the pieces in a plastic bag before adding to recipes.

I keep a bag in an airtight container and measure out whatever amount needed......usually use it as a buttered topping for casseroles.

I've heard of cutting a pocket in thick loin pork chops then baking them. It seems like that would be good.

@ECBG - I made stuffed pork chops this past Sunday, using StoveTop (Pork), very good & easy, will have to try Pepperidge Farm Herb Stuffing next time, sounds good!

This is a great idea, I've never seen a recipe for using stuffing mix in a meatloaf. It makes sense though. I'm going to try this

About 15 years ago, my hair dresser at the time was assisted by her elderly mom at her shop. The lady was SO lovely and a country cook. They belonged to a large church that did quite alot of fundraising and she was making pans of dressing from her homemade cornbread.

I bought 5 pounds and the "crumb" was so very fine I was the only one that liked it. Our sons asked for mine after that which is Pepperidge Farm.

I wish I liked the taste of stove top stuffing, sure would make life easier.

We buy Olive Garden croutons and I make crumbs for stuffing, etc

Instead of stuffing or bread crumbs as a meatloaf additive, another idea is dry oatmeal (the quick-cooking type but not the instant version). It seemed to work pretty well back when I actually made meatloaf.

I used oats many times. Today, it actually sounds like a healthier alternative, if you're into the whole-grain idea of eating.

No @Luvsmyfam the chicken stove top is fine to use. I've used it many times myself. Enjoy! I hope you get back to us and let us know how you liked it.

@LindaSal If you google "Easy Pleasing Meatloaf" you'll find the recipe that uses stove top stuffing (although I guess any brand would do).

I was wondering what stove stop dressing was....thinking it was a salad dressing at first.

No, I have never bought or even tasted stove top dressing and don't plan on it in the future either.

I looked it up and see it contains sage. I wouldn't eat anything that was seasoned with sage, even if I was starving. Sage is one thing I truly can't eat.

i am also gluten free...so no wheat bread in my meat loaf.

If I may, it's Pepperidge" not peppermint.

We love it. I saute a lot of onion and celery, add the butter and chicken broth, my own poultry seasoning and celery seed. You need a big bowl to stir. I stuff a big turkey and bake several 9×9 sprayed casseroles.
