Meatloaf with Quinoa Polenta
You’ll make an ever-dependable meat loaf. I recommend plant-based ground meat product, but you may also use lean ground beef. A homemade barbecue sauce topping is just the ticket to finish the loaf. Quinoa Polenta and lemon-butter roasted cauliflower will round out the menu.
