Description

A moist and savory meatloaf stuffed with gooey melted cheese, wrapped in a tangy glaze, and baked to perfection.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, oregano, and parsley. Mix until just combined.
  3. On the prepared baking sheet, flatten the meat mixture into a 10×8-inch rectangle.
  4. Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses evenly over the meat, leaving a 1-inch border.
  5. Carefully roll the meat up from the short end, like a jelly roll, sealing the edges and ends to enclose the cheese.
  6. Place seam-side down on the baking sheet.
  7. In a small bowl, whisk together ketchup, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce. Spread half of the glaze over the meatloaf.
  8. Bake for 45 minutes. Spread remaining glaze over the top and bake for another 10-15 minutes, until internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
  9. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm.

Notes

For extra cheesy goodness, use a mix of cheddar and mozzarella. Letting the meatloaf rest before slicing helps keep it moist.
