Italian Mozzarella-Stuffed Meatloaf

Name: Italian Mozzarella-Stuffed Meatloaf
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 60 min
Total time: 85 min
Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients: 1 cup diced onion; 1 cup diced green bell pepper; ¾ cup Italian-style bread crumbs; ¼ cup hot pepper sauce; 1 large egg; 1 teaspoon salt; 1 teaspoon ground black pepper; 2 pounds ground beef; 1 (.75 ounce) packet dry brown gravy mix

I created this recipe for meatloaf without ketchup because I needed a meatloaf that contained no tomatoes or tomato sauce. I added a hint of hot sauce to avoid blandness. Serve with mashed potatoes and veggies.

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2
Mix onion, bell pepper, bread crumbs, hot pepper sauce, egg, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl. Add ground beef and mix until well combined. Press into a loaf pan and sprinkle gravy mix over top.
3
Bake in the preheated oven until browned on the outside and no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
