Momma’s Best Meat Loaf Stuffed with Cheese
MOMMA’S BEST MEAT LOAF STUFFED WITH CHEESE
5 lbs. of lean ground beef
8 slices of whole wheat or white bread, toast and then crumble
6 eggs, beaten
1 c. milk
1 (16-oz.) container chopped onion mix
1 (14.5-oz.) can diced tomatoes, drained
½ c. catsup
Salt, black pepper and garlic powder, to your taste
1 lb. pkg. Velveeta block, cut into strips
- Beat eggs, add milk, and toasted bread. Break up with your hands until all bread is in small pieces.
- Add chopped onion and diced tomatoes. Mix with hands. *You do not want to overwork meat. This makes it tough.
- Add catsup and seasoning and blend.
- Place half of meat mixture into loaf pans.
- Put a strip of cheese down the middle. Size can be whatever you like.
- Top with remaining meat loaf mixture.
- Cover each loaf with saran wrap and then with foil and freeze, if desired.
- When ready to bake meatloaf, defrost. Top the loaf with the following:
1 c. catsup
¼ c. Heinz 57 sauce
¼ c. A-1 Steak sauce
¼ c. Pickapepper sauce - Mix all ingredients. Pour what amount you need to cover each loaf. Refrigerate any leftover sauce.
- Bake uncovered at 350 for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
- Let sit for 5 minutes before slicing.
*Leftover meat loaf makes the best sandwiches. This will make 3-5 loaves, depending on size you make.
