Meatloaf pinwheel is tasty and attractive

Published 5:00 am Tuesday, October 8, 2013

Kathy Blair from Somerset, Ky., was looking for a recipe she had clipped years ago from a magazine, and has since lost, for an unusual meatloaf. She said this meatloaf mixture was rolled out flat; mashed potatoes and chopped celery leaves were spread over the mixture and then it was rolled up jellyroll-style. It was then baked, and, when cooled slightly, it could be sliced and the slices resembled pinwheels.

I located a recipe on a food blog called Diary ofaCraftyCook.com that sounded very similar to what Blair had described.

Her recipe did not include the celery leaves, so when I tested it, I simply sprinkled some on top of the mashed potatoes before rolling.

This recipe is a fun twist on the standard meatloaf and mashed potato meal.
