• If you prefer a spicier meatloaf, you can add some crushed red pepper flakes or hot sauce to the mixture.
• Make sure to let the meatloaf rest before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute and keep it moist.

• Leftover meatloaf can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To reheat, place the slices in a baking dish, cover with foil, and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15-20 minutes or until heated through.
