Tips:

To ensure even cooking, shape the meatloaf mixture into a compact and uniform loaf before pan-frying.
Use a well-seasoned cast iron or non-stick skillet to prevent the meatloaf from sticking during cooking.
Cook the tricolor bell peppers separately from the meatloaf to maintain their vibrant colors and textures.
Slice the bell peppers into thin strips to promote even cooking and easier incorporation into the meatloaf.
Allow the meatloaf to rest for a few minutes before slicing to ensure the juices redistribute, resulting in a moist and flavorful loaf.
Serve the pan-fried meatloaf with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.
