Here’s one for my meat loving friends!

Yes, you’re reading and seeing this right…it’s meatloaf. With a pizza topping.

And it’s just amazing.

Polished, we polished our plates when we had this one!

The boys loved this. They decided that it had a bit of a spaghetti taste (I think this would be the pizza sauce with the beef combo.) And they thought it was great that it had pizza on top!

A new kid favorite from our table to yours…

Also, this is easy to make gluten-free by subbing in gluten-free breadcrumbs!

Here’s the recipe for you…

Pizza Meatloaf

When the best of two worlds combine... you get pizza meatloaf!
Prep Time15 minutes minutes
Cook Time50 minutes minutes
Servings - 4 servings

Ingredients 

  • 1 1/2 lbs lean ground beef
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
  • Pepperoni & other favorite pizza toppings
  • Fresh veggies, as side dish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 F.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, egg and breadcrumbs. Add the meat mixture to a 9" round baking dish and press evenly into the dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until meatloaf is cooked through in the middle.
  • Note: if need be, scrape off any extra fat from the top of the meatloaf, before adding pizza toppings.
  • Once meatloaf is baked, spread the pizza sauce directly onto the "meatloaf crust," then add shredded cheese and preferred pizza toppings.
  • Return to the oven for 10 minutes. Cut into "pizza slices" to serve.
  • Prepare veggies.
