Meatloaf has probably always been one of my favorite meals that I get nostalgic about...it just reminds me of home back in the day, and it doesn't hurt that it's also delicious. I love how just about every culture has their own version of meatloaf...which goes to say, this really is a timeless comfort food that so many enjoy. Most traditional meatloaf generally has some type of mashed potato as a side...what would you suggest to compliment this Greek-style meatloaf?

Hello Mary, Sorry for the confusion. The oat mixture is added to the combined meats with the eggs and milk, all of that is put aside while you cook onion and garlic. Then you combine the "meat mixture" with the onion and garlic and follow the directions from there. As for the topping ingredients that is the 1/2 cup ketchup, 1 tsp cinnamon and 3 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese. I hope that helps! Thanks for your feedback!

I didn't see what to do with the oat mixture. Is it part of the topping? Also, all the ingredients are all in one list. Topping ingredients are not listed separately. Is it correct to assume that the cinnamon is a topping ingredient? Confused!!
