Parmesan Meatloaf Recipe: A Classic Comfort Food with a Cheesy Twist

 

Meatloaf is a classic comfort food that’s been a staple in American households for generations. It’s easy to make, filling, and perfect for leftovers. But have you ever tried adding Parmesan cheese to your meatloaf? This simple twist on a classic recipe adds a depth of flavor and a cheesy goodness that will have your taste buds singing.

 

 

βž” 𝐈𝐧𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐒𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬:

 

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup gluten free breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1-2 cloves garlic, finely minced
  • 1 small onion, grated
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup marinara pasta sauce ( Mom’s Spaghetti Bolognese Sauce )
  • 1/2 cup shredded Italian cheese blend
  • minced parsley for garnish

 

βž” 𝙄𝙣𝙨𝙩𝙧π™ͺπ™˜π™©π™žπ™€π™£π™¨:

 

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a loaf pan (I used a regular glass loaf dish as in the photo above) with cooking spray, set aside.

 

In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey and beef, eggs, breadcrumbs, thyme, oregano, basil, garlic, onion, salt, pepper and Parmesan cheese.

 

Try not over handle the mixture otherwise it will get tough. Place the mixture in the greased loaf pan and form into a loaf. Top the meatloaf with pasta sauce.

 

Place filled loaf pan on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes – 1 hour.

 

Remove the meatloaf from the oven and sprinkle the top with the remaining shredded cheese.

 

Place the meatloaf back in the oven and bake until the cheese is melted.

 

Remove the meatloaf from the oven and allow to rest for 5-10 minutes before serving/slicing. Garnish with parsley if desired.

 

*(new cooking time added, mine usually takes 1 hr for 2 lbs meat)

  • 1 4 oz can tomato paste
  • 1 Tbl granulated sugar (or 1 freshly grated carrot)

β€” Method :

βž” Pro Tips:

 

To make your meatloaf extra moist, you can substitute the breadcrumbs with oatmeal or crushed crackers.

 

For a smoky flavor, try adding a few tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce to the meat mixture.

 

If you prefer a tangier taste, swap the ketchup with BBQ sauce.

 

Don’t overmix the meat mixture. Overmixing can result in a tough, dry meatloaf.
