Bonnie,

I think the tortilla chip substitution would be just fine. I’m always looking for ways to get oatmeal into food for the health benefits. I eat oatmeal a lot for breakfast but my husband’s not wild about it. Please let me know how it turns out. 🙂

I’m going to have to try this! One change I might make is to replace the oatmeal with an equal amount of crushed tortilla chips?

i’m all for blending mexican foods and flavors with any other type of cuisine–i think it adds so much! mexican pizza, mexican lasagna, mexican chili–all good. this sounds scrumptious, thanks!

Mary,

This meatloaf will be one of our go-to meals now. I’ll be sure and tell my husband that you view him as a trendsetter. It will make his day/week/month/year! 🙂

Jean,

I remember the first time I had one of those box pizzas, too!. That was before pizza delivery was around. I don’t even remember having frozen pizzas too much. If you wanted pizza, you either had to order it in a pizza parlor or make it from the box. 🙂

Sue,

The meatloaf has few ingredients but it is really tasty. We really like topping it with the usual taco toppings, too! 🙂

Trish,

Is there enough to chicken feet that you can even fry them? I only found them once in Granny’s Chicken and Rice and it scared me to death. 🙂

Ooohhh!! That sounds good!!! The one and only time I remember Daddy cooking a meatloaf, he used both pork and beef. ‘Twas wonderful.

I love meatloaf! You sound like me….the first time a friend stayed at my house and she introduced me to PIZZA. The box kind you make yourself. I had never heard of PIZZA but was
willing to give it a try. I didn’t see what all the fuss was about at that time but since then I have learned to love it. The first tacos were served at at Pastor’s home across the street from where I lived at one time. It’s funny how all this strange stuff slowly inches it’s way into your likes.
Gonna try the meatloaf….it all sounds yummy!
