I love this meatloaf recipe. My husband refused to eat meatloaf until he tried this. I leave out the chopped veggies. The glaze is divine.

I made this for Thanksgiving and it was awesome.

If you love pumpkin pie, but not all the calories, you’ll love this recipe.

If you hate all things pumpkin pie, you will like this. The recipe doesn’t use a whole lot of pumpkin pie spice, so it become more sweet rather than “spice”. And the oatmeal topping definitely gives it more of a coffee cake like flavor.

Stumbled across this on the Fuge. Made it several times and its always a HUGE hit. I had to memorize the recipe because someone always asks for it after they try it.

I like to leave the veggies out and just use crackers and celery sticks on the side as the “dipping” apperatus.

Be warned, this dish is “mild” when hot. But the spiciness kicks up when it gets to room temperature.

You might need to buy:
  • - 8 ounce packages cream cheese
  • - 16 ounce bottle of Ranch dressing
  • chopped celery
  • shredded Monterey Jack or sharp Cheddar cheese or combo thereof

This recipe is great.. its easy to make and very light. If you don’t like a salad that’s heavy on the mayo, this one’s for you!

Don’t sub or skip out on the fresh herbs, it makes the dish very refreshing.
