This meatloaf was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less chili powder.

This meatloaf was a bit dry for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think next time I'll add some more moisture, maybe some extra eggs or milk.

I followed the recipe exactly and my meatloaf turned out dry and bland. I'm not sure what went wrong.
