Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a glass baking pan (9x13) with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl combine ground beef, bread crumbs, basil, oregano, parsley, salt, pepper, milk, and worcestershire sauce. Knead until combined.
- Divide meat in half. Shape one half of the meat into the bottom half of the loaf and place in prepared pan. Place mozzarella slices down the center, leaving 1/2 inch around the ends and sides. Shape remaining half of meat as the top half of the loaf, sealing the edges. This is a free-form loaf so it doesn't need to be perfect.
- In a small mixing bowl whisk together ketchup, brown sugar, worcestershire sauce, red wine vinegar, garlic, salt, and cayenne pepper. Pour half of this mixture over the meatloaf, reserving the remaining half for later.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
- After 45 minutes, remove from oven and pour the remaining sauce over the loaf. Increase temperature to 400 degrees and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
- Let rest 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Mix together ground beef, bread crumbs, egg, 1/2 a chopped onion, milk, Worcestershire sauce in a bowl; season with garlic, Italian seasoning, dry mustard, salt, and black pepper. Transfer the meat mixture to a piece of waxed paper or aluminum foil and flatten to a 1/2-inch thick rectangle.
- Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir yellow onion and mushrooms in melted butter until the onion is translucent and mushrooms soft, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat to cool.
- Spread filling mixture into center of meat rectangle. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over filling, leaving a bit of space at one end for easier rolling and sealing. Pick up the edge of the waxed paper or foil to roll the flattened meat into a log around the filling. Seal the ends and seam and place the loaf into a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until oil from the cheese begins to pool, about 30 minutes. Drain oil and continue baking until the meat is no longer pink in the center, about 30 to 60 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Tips:
- Use a high-quality ground beef. The better the quality of the beef, the better the meatloaf will taste. Look for ground beef that is at least 80% lean.
- Don't overmix the meatloaf mixture. Overmixing will make the meatloaf tough. Just mix the ingredients until they are combined.
- Use a variety of seasonings. This will give the meatloaf flavor and depth. Some good options include garlic, onion, Worcestershire sauce, and dried oregano.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of cheese. Cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan are all popular choices, but you can also try using other types of cheese, such as Gouda, Gruyère, or feta.
- Make sure the meatloaf is cooked all the way through. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the meatloaf. It should be at least 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the meatloaf rest before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meatloaf, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Cheese-stuffed meatloaf is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist and flavorful meatloaf and its gooey, melted cheese filling, this dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give cheese-stuffed meatloaf a try.
