Barbecue Meat Loaf from Cooking Light - posted by Jessica

I found this recipe on the Cooking Light website and decided to give it a try and was pleasantly surprised. It was moist and flavorful. My slices did fall apart a bit, probably because I only used 1 lb of meat and randomly decreased the other ingredients a bit, but was still really good. It was quick and easy to throw together as well. Thank you Cooking Light for a deliciously light version of meatloaf!
