Instructions to make Italian style meatloaf:
- Preheat oven to 350°F
- Put all your meat into a large bowl
- Chop your onion, I happen to use green onions this time because that's what I had this time, but usually I use regular yellow onion
- Chiffonade (cut in strips across the width) your fresh basil
- Dice your garlic cloves
- Dice your bell peppers, I had baby ones so I used more since they were small.
- Break your eggs into a small bowl and scramble them. Add to meat bowl.
- Add all the rest of the ingredients to the meat bowl
- Mix well, I just use my hands.
- Form a loaf, this is on a 9 X 12 roasting pan.
- If you desire, about 10-15 minutes before finished, spread the tomato sauce on top to allow it to cook in. I am not a big fan of doing this, so I don't.
- Cook for 60-70 minutes, an internal temp of 160°F.
- Let rest about 5-10 minutes before cutting.
- This time I served with corn, Pablo pepper rice.
I like my meatloaf with a bit of a glaze on top so I brushed with ketchup mixed with Italian seasoning. I only made a little change on this recipe–I increased the italian seasoning considerably and I added a teaspoon each of onion and garlic powders. This turned out a dry crumbly loaf that I was unable to serve as actual meat loaf. You can imagine how disappointed I was. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
