SASSY SALSA MEAT LOAVES
We still can't settle on our favorite salsa, but, honestly, why bother? There are so many fantastic options! We love trying them all in this twist on classic meat loaf. You can make these loaves ahead, and they'll last for a few days-perfect for meat loaf sandwiches topped with a little Monterey Jack cheese. -Tasha Tully, Owings Mills, Maryland
