Excellent. Kids loved, leftovers good in school lunches. I used real mashed potatoes and the broccoli was great mixed in.

This is a awesome way of doing mash potatoes and meatloaf. I use my own recipe for my meatloaf and used real mash potatoes with fresh broccoli.

My husband said this was awesome! I've got a real meat and potato type man though :) I doubled this recipe used real potatoes and used broccoli and corn. Also I didn't have any steak sauce so I used barbeque sauce and it was still yummy.

It doesn't say what kind of steak sauce so I use Worcestershire; I wouldn't recommend using a WHOLE tablespoon but my hubby loved it anyway. It's a good, quick & reasonably priced way to fix a nice dinner.
