I like fresh mushrooms in my meat loaf. I just dice them up and toss
'em in. I like chopped bell pepper in also. Lots of chopped onions.
Well, it tastes good, but it falls to pieces. So now I put lots less
in. I'll assume she puts an egg in. Eggs work well, so maybe another
one would help. Too much liquid will definitely cause it to fall apart,
as will too much filler.
