Funny thing, I made meatloaf for dinner and then the next morning a guest on the Marilyn Denis show was making meatloaf!! I don't know what recipe she used but it was a coincidence for sure...as well as the day after I posted the Chicken Adobo recipe ...Bon Appetite magazine posted a recipe on Instagram for Chicken Adobo!!!
This is our family recipe for meatloaf...you'll notice the addition of ketchup in the mixture and on top....my mom added ketchup to most foods she made. I will post her chicken recipe sometime, ..made with ketchup! All of her sweet and sour dishes...ketchup! Soups...ketchup! Stew...ketchup! I'm sure there was more!!!
Here is the recipe for the Tenen Family Meatloaf
