I like to make this meatloaf and use the leftovers in spaghetti sauce over brown rice pasta it also makes a great addition to a stir fry. That is 3 meals from one recipe. If you have a large family and wish to use leftovers, I would suggest making two loaves.

Another suggestion would be to make 3 mini-loaves and freeze them from later use.
