I don't know where my mother in law found this recipe originally, I changed one ingredient once because I did not have something and now it is even better and is a family favorite. It is super moist, easy to make and a very quick meal to make after work and tastes like you spent the whole day. Can be made ahead of time for quicker dinners.

EASY, CREAMY LOW-FAT RICE PUDDING
The use of short-grain sticky rice (also called glutinous rice for its texture) makes this dish creamy without the need for whole milk, cream, or butter. Cook the rice in a rice cooker, and it's even easier! You can find this variety of rice in almost any Asian market, many natural foods stores, and increasingly in the international section of mainstream supermarkets.

Tips:
- Use brown rice instead of white rice. Brown rice is a healthier option because it is higher in fiber and nutrients.
- Use lean ground turkey or chicken instead of beef. This will reduce the fat and calories in the meatloaf.
- Add vegetables to the meatloaf. This will add flavor and nutrients to the dish.
- Use a non-stick cooking spray instead of oil. This will reduce the amount of fat in the meatloaf.
- Bake the meatloaf at a low temperature for a longer period of time. This will help to keep the meatloaf moist and juicy.
- Let the meatloaf cool slightly before slicing. This will help to keep the meatloaf from falling apart.
