Quaker Oats' Prize-Winning Meatloaf
Quaker Oats' Prize-Winning Meatloaf
The phrase "Ma! The meatloaf!" will be thrown around in all seriousness in your household after you make this unlikely dinner hero. This recipe was developed in the Quaker kitchens in the '50s, and, according to the brand, remains one of their 'most requested' recipes. Says Quaker: "Using oats in place of bread crumbs gives this meatloaf a moist texture and adds a nutrition boost of B vitamins, protein, and fiber. Warm and deliciously hearty, this is a recipe your whole family will love!"Recipe courtesy of Quaker Oats.21 Timeless Midwestern Recipes
