For a richer flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce to the meat mixture. To prevent the meatloaf from sticking to the pan, grease the loaf pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal. Experiment with different types of cheese for the filling, such as cheddar, provolone, or a blend of Italian cheeses. Serve with a side of mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh green salad for a complete and satisfying meal.

Aug 21, 2022I thought 60 minutes was a little too long, mine was slightly dry. I'll try 50 minutes next time.
