Here's an easy, go-to meatloaf recipe you can put on repeat. We love it as is, but you can also turn up the heat by adding hot green chilies or chipotle peppers. Or swap the tomato sauce for your favorite hot salsa. This meatloaf freezes so well that we love making a double batch and stashing one in the freezer to have another night. If you are going to freeze the meatloaf, bake it for 60 minutes only. Cool, remove from pan, wrap in foil and freeze. A day before you're going to eat it, thaw the meatloaf in the refrigerator, and reheat it in oven at 350°F for 30 minutes. Top with 1/2 cup of tomato sauce and bake for 5 minutes more.
