Meatloaf & Bread Pudding Dinner

We were in for a treat. This was gourmet meatloaf, a recipe of Sandi's son, David. It was so moist, probably because of the 3 eggs she used. It was healthy since it had vegetables in there too. The presentation was not bad at all. There were 2 sauces; a marinara and an Alfredo sauce. We enjoyed that meatloaf along with the mashed potatoes she served and green bean with bacon. Everything taste better with bacon, especially vegetables.


The bread pudding was mind blowing. I had one bite and I thought I died and went to heaven. I could taste the butter. The reason for this was it was made with a ton of butter. The bread she used was the Hawaiian sweet rolls which she toasted lightly. The recipe called for 5 eggs, 2 cups of heavy cream. The topping was made with 1/4 cup butter, cup of brown sugar, a cup of nuts all crumbled. The sauce was whipped butter, powdered sugar and brandy. I have had many of Sandi's bread pudding and they were all very good but this one takes the "pudding".  We all made tribal sounds while we were eating this wonderful dessert.


While we were enjoying this dessert, Sandi had the audacity to announce that next time, she would use less butter. We almost clobbered her to death. Before she could explain herself, we told her she cannot and should not alter the recipe. From now on, this will be THE bread pudding to make.
Thank you David!
