    Cheese-Stuffed Meatloaf is topped with tangy tomato sauce and has a layer of gooey mozzarella in the middle. This recipe is so easy. Just let the oven do all the work. Serve with garlic mashed potatoes for a nostalgic dinner.

    I've become a bit of a meatloaf evangelist here in the UK. I don't know how this happened. It's not as if I grew up eating meatloaf. I probably wouldn't have liked it as a kid and truth be told, I still try to pick out bits of onion whenever possible. As I learned to cook, though, meatloaf became something I embraced. 

    It has a bit of a bad reputation. If you overcook it or don't add enough moisture to the mix, it can be a disappointment. But if it's done right, it's not only tasty the first time around with cheesy mashed potatoes, it's equally as awesome the next day on soft sandwich bread with a healthy dose of mayo. It's time to get on board all around the world.

    This Cheese-Stuffed Meatloaf has a bit of an Italian flare. Nothing authentic or elevated. I mean, it's just meatloaf, people. There's mozzarella cheese layered throughout, and it's topped off with your favorite tomato basil sauce. My sister-in-law and brother-in-law loved it. I'm starting a British meatloaf revolution.

    I served this with mashed potatoes punched up with some parmesan cheese. You could probably also throw in a nice green salad if you're into that sort of thing.

    Is retro still a thing? I have no idea, but I'm definitely still into meatloaf. Make it happen.

    • Category: Dinner
    • Method: Baked
    • Cuisine: American

    Ingredients

    Units Scale
    • 1-½ pounds ground beef
    • 15 ounces of your favorite tomato sauce
    • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
    • 1 cup bread crumbs
    • ¼ cup chopped onion
    • 1-½ tablespoons dried parsley
    • 1 teaspoon salt
    • ¼ teaspoon pepper

    Instructions

    1. Preheat oven to 350F.
    2. In a large mixing bowl, add ground beef, one cup tomato sauce, and all remaining ingredients except for mozzarella cheese. Gently mix all ingredients. I find it's easiest to do this with my hands.
    3. Add a third of the meat mixture to a loaf pan. Evenly sprinkle over half the cheese. Add another third of the meat, then the rest of the cheese, and finally the last of the meat.
    4. Cook your meatloaf in the oven for 30 minutes. Remove the meatloaf and spread the remaining tomato sauce over the top. Cook in the oven for another 30 minutes.
    5. Remove from oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
