Recipe type: Main Dish
Ingredients
  • 3 lbs 93/7 ground beef
  • ½ onion, finely diced
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • ⅓ cup Italian bread crumbs
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Lawry’s seasoning salt (to taste)
  • Fresh ground black pepper (to taste)
  • 6 slices of mild cheddar cheese
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Prep a large bread pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. In a large bowl separate the ground beef and mix in onions and bread crumbs using your fingers (a gentle kneading technique works well here, but don’t play with it too much or your meatloaf will be tough).
  4. In a small bowl whisk together the eggs, Worcestershire sauce, seasoning salt and pepper.
  5. Pour over the meat and again using your fingers gently mix all ingredients together until incorporated throughout.
  6. Lay out a large sheet of wax paper and transfer meat onto it, press out until meat is approximately an inch thick.
  7. Top with slices of cheddar cheese and then starting at one edge of the paper use the wax paper to help you roll up the meatloaf into a log. Pinch closed any seams along the edges and transfer to the baking pan.
  8. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 1.5-2 hours or until internal temperature of meat has reached 165 degrees F. Remove foil midway through bake time to allow the top to brown and form a nice crust.
  9. Allow to cool in pan for 5-10 minutes before removing and cutting. It often works well to use a butter knife to gently unstick any edges around pan before trying to remove.
  10. Serve & enjoy.
Notes
* Experiment with alternative cheeses and seasonings to diversify this recipe. * To cut fat and reduce calories substitute half the ground beef for ground turkey.
