Ingredients
Scale
Meatloaf:
- 1 ½ lbs ground beef
- 1 small onion, finely diced
- 1 small green bell pepper, finely diced
- 1 small red bell pepper, finely diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup beef broth
- ½ cup breadcrumbs (plain or Italian-style)
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 1 egg, beaten
Optional Toppings:
- 2 tablespoons ketchup (for topping)
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (for extra flavor)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line with parchment paper.
- Sauté the veggies: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the onion, bell peppers, and garlic for about 3-4 minutes until softened. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Mix the meatloaf: In a large bowl, combine ground beef, sautéed veggies, shredded cheese, beef broth, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and beaten egg. Mix until just combined—do not overmix to keep it tender.
- Shape and bake: Transfer the mixture into the prepared loaf pan, shaping it evenly. Spread a thin layer of ketchup over the top if desired.
- Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
- Rest & serve: Let the meatloaf rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Drizzle with melted butter for extra juiciness, then serve warm.
