Grandma's Secret Tip
Grandma's Secret Tip
To stretch the last piece of meat loaf to feed the family, Grandma peeled, chopped and boiled 2 or 3 medium potatoes until tender. Then she sautéed a chopped onion in butter in a skillet until golden. She added the potatoes and the crumbled meat loaf to the skillet and cooked the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes developed a golden crust.
