I thought that this recipe, from May 2008 Southern Living, looked intriguing, but I must admit that I was a little apprehensive – chicken meat loaf?

The recipe was really easy. I did use fresh onion/celery/pepper instead of frozen and I like to use my own Greek Seasoning blend, but other than that, I was pretty true to the recipe instructions.

We ate this on top of pitas, with tzatziki, grilled halloumi and a variety of fresh veggies and caramelized onions to “customize” with. I bought some weird pitas this time, that wouldn’t “open”, so we couldn’t stuff them, but they were good this way.

Overall, I wouldn’t give the meatloaf rave reviews. It tasted OK, but it was just a bit unappetizing. I think that boneless, skinless chicken thighs sprinkled with the same Greek seasoning and then grilled would be good and if you served it with some grilled onions and peppers, it would taste very similar. I wasn’t crazy about the mayonnaise flavor in this recipe – it was almost like chicken salad that had been baked. Not awful, but not a home run, either.
