Recipe Notes

- Do not overmix the meatloaf or it could get tough.
- Store any leftover meatloaf in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days.
Here's how to make it:
- Make the topping by combining the bloody mary mix and ketchup in a small bowl. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine all the meatloaf ingredients. Do not overmix.
- Form the mixture into a loaf in baking pan or in a loaf pan. Spread the topping over the meatloaf.
