Note
For a leaner version, you can substitute 90% lean ground beef or ground turkey, but the texture may be slightly less moist.
If you prefer a crispier top, you can brush the loaf with a mixture of ketchup and brown sugar before baking.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat slices in the microwave or oven.
