Wednesday’s Helping: Meatloaf Additions

Harmonious variations on a tasty theme
The same old song sometimes could use a little change -- even when it's an old standard. And when it comes to classic meatloaf, there are many ways to add something new. We’ve given you the hardboiled eggs trick and explained different binding agents. What about changing the flavor by adding a different type of ground meat? The Mixed Stew Crew suggests replacing ground pork with Mexican chorizo for a spicy kick. Simply remove the uncooked insides of three or four links. Take the seasoned loose meat and combine it with the ground beef and turkey. A log of country breakfast sausage will also do in a pinch to make a tasty meatloaf. Both breakfast sausage and Mexican chorizo add a lot of flavor to meatloaf; however, beware of their high fat content. Do you add anything unique to your meatloaf recipe?
