    I really appreciate how healthy these meals are with all the veggies included!! Sometimes it can be frustrating to try to cook on a budget when the budget recipes tend to be very heavy on carbs like rice, beans, potatoes, tortillas, etc with a lot of processed foods used, and have very little good meats or veggies included.

    You can make indivudual meatloaves in a muffin tin. Iwas at a mother-daughter banquet one time and they had meatloaf cupcakes. They made the meatloaf in muffin tins and piped the mashed potatoes on the top like icing.

    Nobody else has mentioned it, but Le Crueset has a lifetime warranty on almost all of their products. My sister got a chipped serving tray from a yard sale a few years ago, and when she reached out, they offered to replace it for free! Not sure if it'll work for you, but might be worth an email to customer service if you'd like! Thanks for always bringing great recipes and entertainment, you're one of my big faves

      I have always done them as meatloaf muffins. They cook way faster and i par cook half for the freezer to either finish in the oven or microwave so they don’t get dry. That’s how I got our girls to eat different veggies when little because they could put veggie decorations on the mashed potatoes on top of meatloaf mountain but they had to eat all their decorations!❤

    Compost all food waste minus meat for your garden. Very simple. Put chicken wire around a large cardboard box and fashion a wire "lid" that can be hooked closed to keep out racoons. Put old branches in bottom then a layer of dirt. Now add your veg. scraps and then you will begin to layer to the box with leaves after food, then a layer of dirt/soil, can put grass clippings in alternating with leaves in season (no weed seeds) and continue. When you start fall/winter by next planting season you will have magnificent dirt with your best friends: worms. Give it a whirl!
