To Plank the Meatloaf and Potatoes:
Form the potatoes into 1/3 cup rounds on the rim of an oven-proof platter. Sprinkle with
paprika, Place the meatloaf in the middle and broil 6 inches from the heat until reheated and
the potatoes are slightly browned. If desired, use a platter large enough to also hold the
asparagus, decoratively.
