    I didn't process the veggies to a fine dice/proto-puree, I chopped them finely but found they weren't quite cooked when the meat was done - so then I sauteed the veggie mixture before adding to the beef, and that worked just fine. Also - for those of us that are not fans of ketchup, I used HP sauce (in US something like A1) and/or a mixture of HP and Worcester.

    Have used this recipe many times. Once I accidently bought ground bison instead of veal so I used it instead. It still came out delicious!

    Very yummy. I added the following variations: crunched crackers instead of bread, 1/4 cup of parmesean cheese, 1/4 cup of milk, and celery salt instead of celery. The ketchup and brown sugar topping can get burnt in the oven, so keep an eye on it!

    I'm trying out meat loaf recipes for a "take comfort" party I'm hosting. This one did not make the cut. Too dry and dense for my tastes.

    Sweetiepie8, so sorry. I just now saw your question. Potlady is correct, 1 1/2 lbs beef, 1/2 lb veal, 1/2 lb pork. Let us know how it turns out! ; )

    Best meatloaf I have ever made. Very tasty, and it was enough for us to get 2 meatloafs out of it, so we froze one for later.
