Italian-Style Meat Loaf
- Ready In:

- Ingredients:
- 12
- Serves:
-
6
ingredients
- 1 cup of your favorite marinara sauce, divided
- 1⁄2 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
- 2 ounces fresh grated parmesan cheese
- 1⁄2 cup finely chopped onion
- 1⁄3 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1⁄2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 large egg
- 1 1⁄2 lbs ground sirloin
directions
- Preheat oven to 350.
- In a large bowl bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup marinara sauce, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, onion, parsley, garlic powder, dried basil, oregano, salt, pepper and egg. Add ground beef and gently mix just until combined.
- Line a 8" x 4" loaf pan with plastic wrap. Scoop the meatloaf into the pan and gently press down to even it out. Use the plastic wrap to help turn the loaf out onto a broiler pan coated with nonstick spray. You could also free-form the loaf; I just found this method easier. Brush the remaining 1/2 cup sauce over top of meat loaf.
- Bake until a thermometer reads about 160 degrees, roughly 60 to 70 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit for 10 minutes before slicing.

Canadian girl that loves to cook for herself and for everyone around her!! I always enjoyed cooking but more so since I started taking better care of myself by eating healthier food (I am a Weight Watchers Lifetime member!). I still love my chocolate though!
