I would seriously write down the ingredients you used, yes, eyeballing is OK but you won't remember the next time.

There has been so many times that I made a great chili and the next time it turned out yuk!  Crazy as it seems you think you remembered and you just don't.

Great....I like your flavors.

p.s.  I would never put sausage in my meatloaf, usually 1 part beef, 1/2 part each ground pork and ground veal.

That's the texture part of meatloaf.  enjoy.

  Sounds delicious, @Luvsmyfam ! 😋😋

And LOL, I do that all the time. 

Throw something together, and if it comes out especially good..then afterwards I'm trying to write down how much of what I put into it, and any details, while it's still fresh in my mind.

In my notes I even tell myself what bowl, pan, or pot to use next time.

no egg?

What temp?

What size pan?

The last meatloaf recipe I tried called for half a bottle of Chili sauce, and it turned out excellent. Something about the flavor of that ingredient really did the trick for me!

[Luvsmyfam]

yes,I used 1 egg and a 9 by 13 pan xhedge.i also have found I like chilli sauce instead of ketchup for topping.i baked at 350 for 45 min.checked temp,added glaze and baked another 40 min.i let sit a good 30 mins.it truly was the best I've ever made.oh yes,forgot 1 more ingredient.shredded mild yellow cheese. About 3/4 cups

I finally have a great meatloaf recipe--have made it several times and ALWAYS turns out great. I combine beef and pork or veal to mine too. I like having a recipe to go from--not good at all just dumping stuff together----dump cooking  is an art--my former SIL is a dump cook and OMG---what wondeful food she comes up with!!!
