Happy Fourth of July... the day Americans celebrate kicking us Brits out of the US. I got my own revenge by marrying my lovely American Hubby... and made it back again. Actually.. it was probably one of my better decisions and have had 10 wonderful years here.
Now...something that I never ate in the Uk and we think of as typically American is meatloaf...so I thought this is the day to share it. This Meatloaf comes from "Recipes For Today" a handy World War 2 booklet produced by General Foods Corp. in 1943. It covers food shortages and rations in the US and includes helpful tips and creative recipes for working with limited food supplies.
The only amendment I made to the recipe was that I used 3 cups saltine crackers (which were available in the 1940s) instead of the breakfast cereal as I had them on hand...and I wasnt going to buy cereal that isnt in my budget
We really liked this recipe. It was tasty and perfectly cooked. Plus there was plenty left over for meatloaf sandwiches, and another new dish I want to try at the weekend
