Being a food experimenter has become on of my favorite things to do since I was a little girl. Recently, I was given an oppurtunity to try Zipsauce. Talk about speedy shipping, I received the Zipsauce within a couple of days. It arrived wrapped in bubble wrap to protect it from breaking. Along with two bottles of zip sauce I received several cards with recipes already made with Zipsauce. I decided to make a meatloaf with the sauce, but not your ordinary meatloaf. At first, I thought the sauce smelled like soy sauce, but once I tried the sauce I was surprised how good it did really tastes.
So On with the Recipe:
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 1 hour
Servings: 4-6

1 large egg
1 medium onion, chopped
1 cup mango, peeled, chopped
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup plain bread crumbs
