BLACK BEAN VEGETARIAN MEAT LOAF
This was a creation based on trying my first black bean vegetarian burger and deciding I had to learn how to make one, then I decided to go for a vegetarian meatloaf instead! Based on a 4 ounce serving, this recipe could be used to make twelve 4 ounce burgers instead of a meatloaf.

BEAN AND MEAT LOAF
When I make meat loaf, I usually just mix together whatever I have on hand. One time I added leftover kidney beans I had in the fridge, and my family loved the meat loaf's soft texture. Now it's our favorite. -Patricia Zwerk of Tucson, Arizona

Dressed up with a little cheese, this classic meatloaf is an easy everyday choice. A combination of ground meat and a different cheese would also taste great -- try pork and beef with Gruyere or Monterey Jack cheese.

Tips:
- Soak the beans overnight: This will help them cook more evenly and quickly.

- Use a lean ground beef: This will help reduce the fat content of your meatloaf.
- Add plenty of vegetables: This will add flavor, nutrients, and moisture to your meatloaf.
- Use a flavorful sauce: This will help keep your meatloaf moist and delicious.
- Cook the meatloaf at a low temperature: This will help prevent it from drying out.
- Let the meatloaf rest before slicing: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the loaf.
