MUSHROOM STUFFED MEATLOAF
I love this unique meatloaf. I have served this to diehard mushroom haters who ate second helpings without even noticing the mushrooms. I can't promise that this will work the same magic on your mushroom haters, but I can promise you a tasty meatloaf. Adapted from Taste of Home magazine.

- Use a variety of vegetables in the stuffing. This will add flavor and texture to the meatloaf. Some good options include mushrooms, onions, carrots, and celery.
