I just stumbled upon this recipe and it is the exact same way my mother and grandmother made it. There's plenty of tomato gravy recipes out there, but none exactly like this. To answer your question, YES, it is delicious over meatloaf and mash potatoes! Just made them last night, and as I type, am eating leftovers.

What an interesting recipe this is. I don't think I've ever had tomato gravy before, but I love how simple and rustic it is and think it would be so delicious smothered over some meatloaf and mashed potatoes. Come to think of it...you may even be able to baste the meatloaf in it gradually as it cooks. I bet the flavor combination would be amazing! Do you think considering the gravy has milk in it...it would be ok, or would it curdle?
