Receta Cowboy Meatloaf
I made this meatloaf while my husband was out of town. He got super excited (when he heard the news, via a facebook update of mine) because he was coming home the next day and he knew the leftovers were in his future. The problem was that he thought the meatloaf was made of meat.
Ah, not usually the case ’round here. When he got home he was tres disappointed to learn that it was a beanloaf rather than a meatloaf. He ate his dinner, nevertheless, and proceeded to rave about the beanloaf, particularly the addition of barbeque sauce. He insisted that the meal be blogged…little did he know that it had been, back in 2009. This loaf was only slightly different from the original – I used oven baked white beans and carrots rather than black beans and celery.
