Updated Meatloaf and Mashed Potatoes
Sometimes, Seth tells me, it’s nice to have old fashion comfort foods, like meatloaf and mashed potatoes. While I’m not the biggest fan of meatloaf and mashed potatoes, I do agree with his basic statement, so I made him an updated version of the old fashion meal. The meatloaf is made with turkey instead of beef, and before you dismiss the recipe, let me tell you that I’ve never had a moister meatloaf. Seth, who usually shuns ground turkey, loved this meatloaf. Instead of ketchup or tomato sauce, the meatloaf is made with a tangy BBQ sauce that is amazing. It gives the meatloaf a ton of flavor while keeping it moist. I really liked the individual portions of meatloaf because then everyone got more of the crispy outside crust. As for the mashed potatoes, I went with roasted sweet potatoes, smashed with some butter, sugar, and orange juice. I was unimpressed with the potatoes, but will definitely be enjoying the meatloaf again.
