Notes
Can you get more comforting than meat loaf? This classic dish gets even better if you pair it with garlic mashed potatoes. While the meat loaf cooks, combine 2-1/2 cups frozen mashed potatoes (half of a 22-ounce package), 1-1/4 cups milk, and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt, pepper, and garlic powder in a microwave-safe 1-1/2 quart baking dish. Cook the potatoes according to package microwave directions. You'll have enough to serve with the meat loaf, and the gang will be beggin' for more.
