Notes

Recipe Tips

To make cleanup easier, you can line the baking dish with aluminum foil before adding the meatloaf mixture. This will also help prevent the meatloaf from sticking to the dish. If you have any leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The rice can be reheated in the microwave or on the stovetop with a splash of water to prevent it from drying out.
