Mozzarella Stuffed Bacon Wrapped Meatloaf Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• In a large bowl, mix together beef, cooked onions and garlic, Parmesan, eggs, panko, salt, pepper, Worcestershire, milk and parsley. Set aside.
• In another bowl, make the glaze by mixing ketchup, brown sugar, mustard powder, onion powder, paprika, and tomato paste. Reserve half of the glaze in a separate bowl for after the meatloaf is cooked. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, mash cooked potatoes, butter, salt, pepper, milk and parmesan to desired consistency. Set aside.
• Line a bundt pan with slices of bacon and use a pastry brush to spread a layer of glaze on the inside of the bacon.
• Add ⅔ of the meat to the bottom of the bundt pan and spread up the sides and up the middle of the pan making a "bowl" for the mashed potatoes.
• Add the mashed potatoes into the "bowl" and smooth out. Top the mashed potatoes with the remaining meat, smooth out, coat the top with the raw meat glaze, and fold the slices of bacon over the top of the meat. Cover with foil and bake for 1 hour, remove the foil after 30 minutes and carefully drain some of the fat before putting it back into the oven.
• Place a cooling rack on top of the bundt pan and flip over onto a baking sheet. Remove the bundt pan and coat the meatloaf with the reserved glaze.
• Broil on high for 3-5 minutes or until the glaze has caramelized.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
• Make the sauce: In a medium bowl, stir together the tomato sauce, apple cider vinegar, and honey. Set aside.
• Make the meatloaf: In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, zucchini, onion, garlic, egg, Dijon mustard, honey, 2 tablespoons of the tomato sauce, bread crumbs, salt, pepper, oregano, basil, and parsley. Mix well.
• Add half of the meatloaf mixture to a greased loaf pan and flatten to form an even layer.
• Layer the cheese over the meatloaf layer. Top with the rest of the meatloaf and smooth the top.
• Top the meatloaf with half of the tomato sauce mixture, using a spoon or rubber spatula to spread evenly. Reserve the rest of the tomato sauce.
• Bake the meatloaf for 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reads 160˚F (70˚C) when tested with a meat thermometer.
• When the meatloaf is cooked through, warm the reserved tomato sauce in the microwave or a skillet, then drizzle on top of the meatloaf.
• Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with your favorite sides. (We used mashed sweet potatoes and asparagus.)
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 320° Fahrenheit. Mix ground beef, eggs, breadcrumbs and spices in a large bowl. Line a 9x5 inch loaf pan first with parchment paper and then with ⅔ of the bacon, leaving an overhang. Shape a long log with ⅔ of the meat mixture and fit it inside the loaf pan. Make a groove in the middle and add the mozzarella cheese to it. Cover with the remaining meat mixture. Fold the bacon overhang on top and cover entirely with the remaining ⅓ of bacon. Spread with ⅓ of the barbecue sauce. Bake in the middle of the preheated for 40 minutes. Spread with another ⅓ of the barbecue sauce. Continue baking for another 20 minutes, spread with the remaining sauce and serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix beef, onion, 1/2 of the tomato sauce, bread crumbs, egg, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon oregano, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Pat into a 1/2-inch-thick rectangle on a sheet of waxed paper. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top.
• Lift up the short side of the waxed paper to start rolling up the meatloaf. Roll tightly, peeling back paper as you go. Seal edges in place. Transfer meatloaf to a loaf pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Combine remaining tomato sauce and 1/2 teaspoon oregano; pour over meatloaf and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake until cheese is melted, about 15 minutes more. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
