Recipe
This lean and healthful loaf was developed by my son, Scott, who loves meatloaf but does not eat beef. It makes a large loaf to serve hot as a main dish and cold in delicious sandwiches the next day. The Cranberry-Horseradish Relish adds some extra zing to this loaf. The horseradish adds a surprising zippy flavor to this raw cranberry relish. This is also good on other fish, poultry, and ham.

- 1 cup quick-cooking rolled oats
