I made meatloaf for the first time ever a couple of months back and it was a hit with the family. I just used ground beef (very lean) and put some herbs (parsley, chives, shallotts) and spices (salt, pepper, cracked chilli and a couple of others) in along with some onion and garlic, some evaporated milk, an egg and some breadcrumbs. I served it with a beef stock gravy which the boys then added bbq sauce to.

I've made it twice more since then and it's as popular as ever. I never thought I'd like it, but I do.

Last night I made spaghetti and meatballs. that was a hit too.
