This cheesy meatloaf is a comforting dish that combines savory beef and melted mozzarella for a delightful twist on a classic recipe.
Ingredients
1 pound ground beef
1 medium onion
1 cup stuffing mix
1 large egg
1 cup mozzarella cheese
Method
Gather all your ingredients on the kitchen counter for easy access.
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a 9x5-inch loaf pan by greasing it with non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, blend together ground beef, finely diced onion, stuffing mix, and a whisked egg. Mix thoroughly with your hands until everything is well incorporated, then firmly press the mixture into the greased loaf pan.
Bake the meatloaf in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature hits at least 160°F (70°C).
After baking, take the meatloaf out of the oven and generously sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the top. Let it rest for about 10 minutes to allow the cheese to melt beautifully.
