$8.00 Mozzarella stuffed, garlic italian meatloaf


I think it's so silly when I hear people complain about meatloaf. In my house, it's one of my family's favorites. Adding garlic and garlic seasoning with flavored bread crumbs, then stuffing it with cheese may have something to do with it!


2-2 1/2 lbs ground beef (I used 80/20) $5.50
3/4 c Italian style bread crumbs $0.70
2 eggs $0.30
1 tsp minced garlic or 3 cloves chopped fresh garlic $0.10
1 tsp garlic salt*
3 pieces of mozzarella about finger length long and roughly 1 in. wide
1/2 cup ketchup $0.50


Preheat oven to 375. Mix the meat in a large bowl with all the ingredients except the ketchup and cheese. Once mixed, divide the meat into 2 piles. Spray a meatloaf pan with some non stick spray. Place one of the piles of meat into the dish. Press it in. This will be your first layer of meat. Then lay in the 3 slices off cheese in the center of the meat. Take the rest of the meat and place on top the first layer and cheese. press all around to form a loaf shape. top with ketchup and bake for 1 hour 15 mts . let sit 10 mts before slicing into. Enjoy!

So 3 steps:
Mix meat and ingredients
build loaf putting cheese in the middle
bake
