This meatloaf is so good! Ridiculously good. It’s also ridiculous that I took a photo of it, because the photo in the book and all of the other photos in the book are soooo beautiful that why take another one? But when I make a friend’s recipe and review it on my blog I like proof 😉 This photo is my proof that I made it, and I’m telling you it’s craaazy good.
In addition to the stellar recipes, this book will have you smiling, cracking up, and generally loving Juli. She’s adorable, and such a riot. It’s a really feel-good kinda book. I highly recommend it. AND it’s way on sale right now, so go grab a copy and enjoy this recipe that Juli said I could share 🙂 ♥, Kelly
