Mummy Meatloaf!
From Gather and Nest, where you can find the recipe. It has noodles, so it has to be good, right?

From Molly B in New York:
This local landmark has been dishing up fine fare for decades. Dedicated to supporting local farms, the food’s always fresh, seasonal, and delicious. Consequently, the place is always packed, especially at lunchtime on a perfect October Saturday. I was delighted to note a meatloaf sandwich on the extensive and eclectic lunch menu. Served with a generous layer of monterey jack cheese and grilled to golden brown perfection on two thick slabs of homemade rye bread, the sandwich was served with a tasty side of garden veggie pasta salad. Not your run-of-the-mill meatloaf by any stretch! However, the meal didn’t suffer in the slightest for its unconventionality. The meatloaf was firm and flavorful, with crunchy bits from its time spent under the grill. The melted cheese and tangy bread combined to create a wonderful pastiche of tastes and textures. No single flavor predominated, but all came together in scrumptious harmony. Washed down with a mug of hot local apple cider at a cozy booth decorated with fresh flowers, it was the perfect fall luncheon. If your leaf-peeping forays take you to the byways of Dutchess County, it’s worth the trouble to seek out this unpretentious but top-notch restaurant. They also have a large variety of home-baked goodies to take home. I dare you to try to walk out without a carrot cupcake or a loaf of pumpkin bread! McKinney & Doyle, Pawling, NY
