I made this on 9/03/08 for the "Beyond Burgers Challenge" in the Cooking Photo Forum, and also as a part of my dinner. I made the meatloaf almost as it was written, didn't have any real onions so, about 3 tablespoons of instant were used.Added a total 1/2 teaspoon of pepper and the same amount of sage.After reading some of the other reviews about the sauce being a little too sweet,I made it like this.I used 1/4 cup ketchup, 1 Tablespoon of each type of sugar,kept the amount of nutmeg the same,and cut the mustard down to 1/2 teaspoon. I baked it for 45 minutes, then drained the "drippings" topped it with the sauce and baked for 15 minutes more.After letting this "rest" for about 10 minutes, it cut into the most perfect slices you could ever ask for.The meatloaf was slightly on "the dry side " so the next time this is made, I'm cutting the breadcrumbs down to 3/4 cup and see if that helps. But other than that this is what a meatloaf should be. Thanks for posting and "Keep Smiling "

    Enjoyed the meatloaf as I am a terrible meat loaf maker and this receipt suits my taste very well. I do not use the topping as I prefer a catsup based topping.

    This was really good. I doubled the recipe, and we had leftovers for the next day or two. I think that the next time I make it, however, I will use about half the sugar. Probably just use the brown sugar. It was a little too sweet for our tastes. Didn't go too well with bread for meatloaf sandwiches, when it was so sweet. The salt and everything else, is just the perfect amount for flavor. It tasted a lot like mine, except I use stewed tomatoes that have been pureed, instead of milk, and we have never done it with a sweet topping, just catsup alone. I have eaten the sweet kind, and have always liked it. But I will tone the sugar down a little next time. Great recipe!

    For the sauce, when I had posted it, I had doubled the recipe, and some found it too much. So please cut everything in half... my family doesn''t eat much of the sauce when it''s first served,they love it when scraped off the top of the meatloaf and spread on the bread for cold meatloaf sandwiches, while my husband likes it spread on a thick slice of hot meatloaf and mashed potatoes
