Hi
We had this for dinner last night and it was really very tasty and quite moist too! A nice little twist from your run of the mill meatloaf!
Enjoy!

Confetti Meatloaf
1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
5 ounces fresh spinach, finely chopped
2 carrots, grated
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 large egg, beaten
3/4 cup vegetable or tomato juice - divided use
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup fine dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup ketchup
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup of the vegetable or tomato juice and the ketchup. Set aside.
Combine all other ingredients and mix well. Form into a loaf and place in a 1-quart loaf pan.
Bake for 50 to 55 minutes or until center of meat loaf reaches 160°F (70°C) on an instant read thermometer.
Top with reserved ketchup mixture during last 5 minutes of cooking.
Serves 6.
Tip: Frozen spinach that has been thawed and squeezed dry can be substituted for the fresh spinach.
Tip: Gentle handling when mixing the ground beef with the other
ingredients will ensure a moist, tender meatloaf.
