You can cook the meatloaf right in the pressure cooker, either on the rack over water (which would be pressure steaming the loaf) or directly in the pan. Here's how:

Make a standard meatloaf - for example 1 pound ground beef with about 3/4 cup bread or oatmeal, the usual veggies etc. Shape into a loaf and brown the top side for 2-3 minutes in the pressure cooker using just enough of your favorite oil or cooking spray to keep it from sticking. Turn the loaf over and add to the pan about 1 cup of liquid (I use part de-fatted beef broth and part red wine). Lock down the lid, bring the pan to pressure, and cook under pressure for about 25 minutes. You can release the pressure under cold water or let it sit and let the pressure drop on its own, which is nice if you want it to stay hot for awhile. It won't get all dried out while it waits. This makes a moist and flavorful loaf and doesn't heat up the kitchen like an hour in the oven does!

To pressure steam, make the loaf, put it on the oil-sprayed rack and put the rack in the pressure cooker over 1 cup or so of water. Bring up to pressure and then cook about 25 minutes.
