Cheese-Topped Meat Loaves image

This is one of my favorite entrees for two. I found this tender meat loaf recipe in a supermarket's cookbook almost 20 years ago and have enjoyed it ever since. Sometimes I substitute ground turkey or chicken for the ground beef or make extra loaves to freeze for later meals. -Lois Kinneberg, Phoenix, Arizona

I thought this recipe was just okay. The meatloaf was a bit dry and the cheese topping was bland.

This was a bit of a disappointment. The meatloaf was dry and the cheese topping was bland. I won't be making this again.

The cheese topping was a bit too salty for my taste, but otherwise this was a great recipe. The meatloaf was moist and flavorful, and the mashed potatoes were creamy and smooth.
