- Serve. Allow the Meat Loaf to cool for 20 minutes. Slice and serve with your favorite tomato sauce, gravy or savory condiment along with ALEXIA SWEET POTATO FRIES, ALEXIA OVEN CRINKLES OR ALEXIA MASHED POTATOES.
Cook Alexia potatoes according to the directions on the package.
Note: To make fresh bread crumbs, simply cut off the crust from fresh bread slices or rolls. Using a food processor, carefully chop the bread pieces to make light and fluffy fresh breadcrumbs. ALEXIA ARTISAN BREADS™ are a perfect source for this recipe ingredient!
