This is a fantastic spin on meatloaf that uses ground chicken instead of beef, reducing the fat without sacrificing any flavour! It makes a lot of food that easily leaves leftovers for the next day. Very easy to put together, I usually double or even triple the recipe to make extra meatloaves to freeze and take out on busy weeknights. Like any meatloaf, it suits personal taste adjustments well; add onion, spices, and anything else you enjoy to the basic recipe to make it your own!
