Adjust the amount if you are wanting to make a smaller amount. Although, it does freeze well for all of you meatloaf lovers who like to prep meals in advance!

Notes
This is a large batch meal. Once the loaves have cooled, they can be removed from the loaf pans and wrapped in foil to be frozen. To reheat, thaw in refrigerator overnight, then bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
The refrigerated meatloaf can also be sliced for great meatloaf sandwiches. Just slice into 3/8 inch slices, serve on white bread with Mayo.
