CIN'S "EASY ITALIAN STYLE MEATLOAF W/A TWIST"
Turned out to be a very tasty meatloaf. My Hubby said,''wow, that was good...can I take a meatloaf sandwich in my lunch?'' The next day I used some of the leftovers to make a "Meatloaf Cheese Quesada". I made it by using some creamy spinach dip for the spread inside...yummmmmO!!! Photos By: CinStraw

Steps:
- 1. Grease loaf pans with extra-virgin olive oil. Preheat oven to 350 dF.
- 2. Topping: Using the 1/4 can tomato paste you retained add 1/4 c ketchup and 1/8 c vidalia onion poppyseed dressing...mix together well, set aside.
- 3. Grab yourself a large mixing bowl (big enough to get your hands in), to mix ingredients up. Add aLL ingredients together, (except topping mix), and combine well.
- 4. Put into oiled loaf pans and spread your topping all over the top of each loaf. This mixture will make enough to fill 1-regular sized loaf pan plus 2-mini loaf pans (or 2-regular loaf pans).
- 5. Bake for approximately 1 to 1 1/2 hours (or when the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 160 dF)...I baked all 3 in oven at the same time together, so it took about 1-1/2 hours to bake it, When baked let it rest about 5 minutes or more, on cooling racks before removing from pan to platter, then it's ready to eat. Enjoy!!!!

PAUL'S ITALIAN-STYLE MEATLOAF
A twist on the old standard meatloaf. This is from someone who used to run an old BBS that had a cooking "echo". I use 1/2 ground beef, and 1/2 ground turkey. Use a commercial canned marinara or make your own.

Steps:
- Pour into an old-fashioned glass with two or three ice cubes. Stir gently, and garnish.
Tips:
- Use a combination of ground beef and ground pork for a moist and flavorful meatloaf.
- Soak the bread crumbs in milk before adding them to the meat mixture. This will help to bind the ingredients together and prevent the meatloaf from becoming dry.
- Add plenty of grated Parmesan cheese to the meat mixture for a cheesy, Italian flavor.
- Season the meatloaf generously with garlic, onion, oregano, and basil. These herbs and spices will give the meatloaf a delicious Italian flavor.
- Wrap the meatloaf in bacon before baking it. This will help to keep the meatloaf moist and flavorful, and it will also give it a crispy outer crust.
- Bake the meatloaf in a loaf pan at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the meatloaf to hold its shape and prevent it from crumbling.

Cin's Easy Italian Style Meatloaf with a Twist is a delicious and easy-to-make recipe that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The combination of ground beef, ground pork, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, and Italian herbs and spices gives the meatloaf a moist, flavorful, and cheesy texture.
