    I just luv Paula Deen & her recipes! 🙂
    I luv bell pepper but I have to omitt it from alot of recipes cuz my husband is allergic to them. I would prolly prefer the crushed tomatoes over the diced tomatoes as well in my meatloaf.
    I remember my Grandmother taking the drippings from the meatloaf & makin what she called "Tomato Gravy" for an extra topping 7 gravy for mashed potatoes, yummm Man I miss her cookin!
    I think I have decided what is for dinner 2morrow nite! 🙂

    Looked like it started life a bit TOO wet, but it seemed to get over it. The oatmeal soaked it up? I'm with you on skipping the peppers, IMHO, they don't belong in a meatloaf. I'm betting that topping adds a REALLY nice touch.
