It’s ‘MuricaWeek people, the 4th of July is upon us and there ain’t nothin’ more ‘Murican than MEATLOAF!! Okay, that may be a wild over statement, but with the weather in Seattle hitting the mid-90’s – we are melting and there ain’t no way that the oven is getting turned on, that I am cooking up something huge for dinner, or that I am doing anything fighting off the dog for space on the floor in front of the box fan. I’m a good dog mom. No YOU get out of my way!! Ugh, it’s HOT!

And we all know about my love of old people food, but hear me out – these aren’t your average meatloaf sandwiches. Slathered in cranberry honeymustard and topped with buttered caramelized onions and microgreens – meatloaf sandwiches have gone hip. Or would it be hipster? Just trust me.
Perhaps the only true benefit to apartment living, especially in the summer is that there is a pool right outside out porch. Now that my best friend and her husband live in our complex too, I have a pool buddy on stand by and we have been there on a regular routine just floating in the deep end, with a steady stream of snacks at the ready and avoiding cannonball overspray. Hey, girl has to protect her beer. And snackage.

And I predict for the 4th, it will be a PACKED pool, but I’ve got lots of snacks at the ready. Stay tuned on Friday for a bunch of last minute 4th of July party favorites that you can make in a hurry. I know we are all busy and those last minute scrambles happen. I’ll have you covered with ice cream recipes, potato salad recipes, salads, desserts, and MORE.

In the mean time, make my 30 minute Mini All American Meatloaves and use the leftovers to make these Cranberry Honey Mustard Meatloaf Sandwiches.
