Meatloaf is an old favourite for picnics. It's a great way to turn humble mince into something very tasty. Everyone has their own twist on it and this recipe has been passed down from our grandparents. I top it with my homemade onion marmalade before cooking, which adds a little sweetness. Of course, you can buy the onion marmalade or add a number of other flavours: nuts, spinach, herbs from the garden, or you can wrap the meatloaf in bacon. The list goes on. Serve a generous slab between two slices of fresh bread with a spoonful of chutney, or serve a slice with creamy mashed potato and salad.
