Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 egg
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon oregano (optional)
- 7 oz mozzarella cheese, cut into cubes
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
Mix the Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, egg, chopped onion, breadcrumbs, milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and oregano. Mix everything together with your hands until well combined.
Tip: Don’t overmix to avoid making the meatloaf tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Shape the Meatloaf: Place half of the meat mixture into a loaf pan, pressing it lightly to make it even.
Add the Cheese: Place the mozzarella cheese cubes in the center, leaving a margin around the edges so the cheese doesn’t ooze out.
Cover with the Remaining Meat: Add the remaining meat mixture on top of the cheese, pressing lightly to seal.
Tip: Make sure the cheese is well-covered by the meat to prevent it from leaking during baking.
Bake: Place the meatloaf in the preheated oven and bake for about 45-50 minutes, or until fully cooked in the center. To check, insert a meat thermometer into the center of the loaf – it should read 160°F (70°C).
Let It Rest: Remove from the oven and let it rest for about 10 minutes before slicing. This helps keep the meatloaf juicy.
Serving
Slice and Serve: Slice the meatloaf and serve it with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.
