Welcome to Sunday Supper- Mushroom Meatloaf with Mushroom Gravy
PUBLISHED ON: 09.12.2010
It’s Sunday, friends and family are making their way to the house to enjoy Sunday Supper. If you have been following this blog, you will know that Sunday Suppers is a way that we celebrate our friends and family, by coming together, having a great time, and enjoying a meal together. A meal that everyone participates in preparing and serving.
The weather is still hot so we remain indoors. I am hoping that soon we will be able to carry the table and chairs to the patio to enjoy our meals outside.
Come join us for dinner!
There is always plenty for everyone
This was amazing. If you have not had a classic meatloaf in awhile, welcome it back to your table.

I always remember as a child our family meals with my grandparents and friends. It is by far the best way to bring together all family members and friends. And the dishes from what I can tell look terrific.

This sounds delicious–and I'm happy not to have to purchase pork and veal to add to the beef!! Honestly, we were planning hamburgers on the grill but I'm so tempted by this. Alas, no mushrooms. Next Sunday supper for sure. Hope you cool off soon.Best,bonnie

Woo hoo! Meatloaf is a real favorite of mine Velva:) Love this one with the mushrooms and the creamy mushroom gravy. Sounds like a wonderful dinner.Congrats on your poblanos too (saw that on facebook). We love this rice recipe from Marcela on the Food Network. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/marcela-valladolid/chile-and-cheese-rice-recipe/index.htmlI've already made it twice this month. It's rice, corn, roasted poblanos, and monterey jack cheese. It's super tasty!

Sunday Supper is a wonderful idea, and meatloaf–even better!
Miss Meat and Potatoes
What a lovely tradition Velva!! We too are trying to do this more often – at least one Sunday a month. And meatloaf is perfect because it's liked by everyone of all ages (and the mushroom twist makes it 'sophisticated' enough for the adults…)Love the pictures. Keep it going and thanks for sharing!
