The Construction of a Meal
February 5th
To be: green chili meatloaf — with cilantro from the garden
To be: spicy sweet potato fries
To be: roast broccoli
To be: red velvet cupcakes
To be: cream cheese frosting
This post also could be titled: Why I’ve been enjoying meatloaf leftovers for the week. If you are looking for a kick-ass, tried and true meatloaf recipe, my mom’s spicy Mexican Meatloaf is really, really good. Have you ever noticed meatloaf is like gumbo — it tastes incredibly better as leftovers?

I have red velvet cake every year for my birthday. Your photos reminded me that I can’t wait until my birthday!
Lainey’s chicken catchatori is better the next day by about 10x.
Looks yummy! That cilantro is looking good, dear gardener…
I have made Kelli’s Mom’s meatloaf and I can verify it is delicous! Goegeous meal Kelli. I drooled over the fries!
It looks so good. I am not usually a meatloaf lover, but I will definately have to try your mum’s recipe.
That sounds pretty close to my perfect meal. I LOVEloveLOVElove your mom’s meatloaf and also red velvet cupcakes.
Tell me that you put cream cheese frosting on them – tell me that!!
Thanks so much for sharing the meatloaf dish. My husband loves meatloaf, so I think I just found our Valentine’s dinner! I just need to swap the red velvet cupcakes with white chocolate chip cookies and I am set.
The prep photos are great!
I love your meatloaf recipe! It’s a hit at my house! (And, I love sweet potato fries…actually sweet potato anything!)
Yum! I am so in the wrong house. lol
