This French Onion Meatloaf is to die for! A little secret....David does not like meatloaf at all but he had 2 helpings of this and said it was the best meatloaf he ever had! I think I may have a winner here! He even asked for leftovers! It does take a little longer because you have to caramelize the onions but you have to trust me here, it is so worth it! I cant wait for you to try it!
