Cheesy Layered Meatloaf image

My mom used to make this dish and it was always a big hit. Now it's a big hit in my house too! Also, it's still super yummy and much healthier if you sub the ground beef for ground turkey, just remember to add lots of Italian seasoning to the turkey and sauce so it's still super flavorful! Enjoy!

This meatloaf was a disappointment. It was dry and flavorless.

Overall, this was a good meatloaf recipe. I would make it again, but I would make a few changes.

I had a hard time finding the right cheese for this recipe. I ended up using a combination of cheddar and mozzarella.

I've made this meatloaf several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's so easy to make and always turns out perfectly.

This meatloaf was easy to make and so delicious! I used ground turkey instead of beef and it was still very flavorful. The cheese layer was the perfect touch.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! The meatloaf was moist and flavorful, and the cheese was gooey and melted. My husband and kids loved it.

This cheesy layered meatloaf was a hit with my family! The combination of ground beef, sausage, and bacon gave it so much flavor, and the cheese in the middle melted perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.
