This recipe reminds me of the wild, the horses, and the farm. If I remember it right this is the same meal I had when I visited my friend in Texas. Since I was there only for 2 days, he made sure I tasted this, if not the real skewer. It’s just sad that I forgot to ask for the recipe. That’s why I’m so thrilled when I found this, I thought, hey this is the same casserole that I’ve been craving for! It’s super flavorful, delicious, and so far the best meatloaf with potato dish I have ever tasted!
