Puerto Rico Meatloaf

By Stephanie Manley Updated 01/19/21

This recipe came from a friend of my mother’s when growing up.  This is a staple in the Puerto Rican diet.  What makes this different is that you don’t really cook it in a loaf pan, like you would in many recipes.  This meat loaf is a little looser, but still just as tasty.  This recipe is by Kathy Perez. Topeka, KS. 1972.

    1. Thank you for making this clear. This was the recipe, and the title that it was given 40 years ago. Since I can’t get a hold of Kathy Perez, I am going to leave it called this. I hope you can understand.
