Ingredients:
1 tablespoon oil
1 onion, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
8 ounces mushrooms, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 pounds ground beef
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup cheese whiz (optional for extra cheesiness)
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 eggs
1 cup panko breadcrumbs (use gluten-free for a gluten-free option)
4 ounces provolone cheese (optional)
8 slices provolone cheese (for topping)
Directions:
1. Sauté Vegetables:
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms. Cook for 7-10 minutes, or until vegetables are soft. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
2. Prepare the Meatloaf Mixture:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, pepper, cheese whiz, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, eggs, breadcrumbs, and the cooked vegetable mixture. Mix until well combined.
3. Stuff with Cheese:
On a lined baking sheet, shape half of the meatloaf mixture into a loaf. Place the 4 ounces of provolone cheese in the center. Cover with the remaining meat mixture, sealing the edges to enclose the cheese fully. Shape into a loaf.
4. Bake to Perfection:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Bake the meatloaf for 50-60 minutes, or until fully cooked.
5. Add Gooey Cheese Topping:
Place the sliced provolone cheese over the top of the meatloaf. Return it to the oven and broil for 2-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
6. Serve and Enjoy:
Slice and serve hot! Pair with mashed potatoes or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
