Green Chile Meatloaf
This green chile meatloaf has a spicy, flavorful kick - thanks to green chiles mixed in and a chipotle sauce on top! If you are more of a mild spice fan, skip the chipotle sauce and go with a basic ketchup topping.

Notes
Notes:
- I used cornflakes in this recipe because I always seem to have extra at the house. You can also try oats or breadcrumbs instead. This recipe is pretty flexible.
- If you are sensitive to spice, I recommend skipping the chipotle sauce and using ketchup instead.
