directions

1. Preheat oven at 350 degrees.
2. Combine ingredients from the ground beef to the breadcrumbs. Make sure to work all of the breadcrumbs inches.
3. Place half of the ground beef mixture in the loaf pan.
4. Top with all 3 cheeses.
5. Top with remaining ground beef mixture.
6. Use a spatula and go around the edges of the meatloaf to seal some of the bottom and top layers together. This keep most of the cheese from escaping.
7. Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until thermometer reads 160 degrees.
8. In a small saucepan combine salsa and paprika.
9. When meatyloaf is finished pour warm salsa over meatloaf before serving.
10. I flip my meatloaf over onto a serving plate before adding salsa. The cheeses look so good flowing between the layers of meat.
