Tent meatloaves with foil and let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
For the best meatloaf, try combining all of the ingredients before you add the meat.
Work the ensuing mixture as little as possible and don't compact it.
Let the meatloaf stand for 10 minutes, covered, after it's cooked.
Be sure to refrigerate leftovers promptly.
Leftover meatloaf can be used in place of meatballs in many recipes and naturally the world famous meatloaf sandwich can be a great leftover for the week.
