Morrison recipe for their meatloaf
Hello James,
I have the Morrison's Meatloaf recipe from the Morrison's Kitchen Manual. It was copied from the actual Manual and sent to me by an ex-employee of Morrison's in a rather jumbled up state. I have tried to rearrange it sensibly. See below.
Note that this is a food service recipe that makes 80 four ounce portions. You will have to cut it down to size for however many servings you want to make.

Hello James,
My online acquaintance, who is a former Morrison's manager, just sent me the below recipe from his copy of the Kitchen Manual. It's much simpler than the other one. He said the first recipe is not typical of a Morrison's recipe, so this one is probably more accurate for the cafeteria chain.
