... Scandinavian/U.S. Midwest meatloaf. You put half your meatloaf mixture in the
pan and impress a small trench down the center, lay hard-boiled eggs end-to-end
in the trench and cover all with the rest of the mixture (I cut off the ends of my
hard-boiled eggs so that I get a perfect "yellow eye" down the center of every slice).
.
The "dinosaur poop" name is mine (SURPRISE!!!). I make a huge, misshapen
meatloaf and tell kids that this is how dinosaurs lay their eggs so that other
dinosaurs don't eat them.

It's so much fun to cook for kids!!!

(For adults, I lay {end-sliced} tubes of stuffed green olives alongside the eggs
at 4 and 8 o'clock.)
