Ingredients

  • 2 pounds lean ground beef
  • 1 cup bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup minced onion
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
  • 4 slices deli ham
  • 5 slices fresh mozzarella
  • 1 roasted red pepper, sliced - we used store bought kind
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves - or spinach

For Meatloaf Glaze

  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a 9 x 13 baking dish with foil for easy cleanup.
  • In large bowl combine beef, bread crumbs, onion, egg, garlic, milk, oregano, basil, salt and worcestershire sauce. Gently mix with your hands being careful not to overwork it.
  • Take half of the meat mixture and add to baking dish shaping it into a loaf. Place, ham, mozzarella, roasted red peppers and basil down the middle leaving edges so you can seal it.
  • Top with remaining meat mixture. (I find making 3 large patties and placing on top the easiest method). Seal the edges well by pinching the beef together.
  • Combine all glaze ingredients in a small bowl. Top the meatloaf with half of the glaze saving the remaining.
  • Bake for about 40 minutes. Remove from oven and top meatloaf with remaining glaze. Bake an additional 15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees.
  • Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing
