Stuffing food with cheese just makes it taste better. On top of that, it is a very simple process that will not take up a lot of your time, when it is already so precious, to begin with. Cheese stuffed meatloaf is precious, too.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1–1/2 pounds ground beef
- 16 ounces picante sauce
- 1/3 cup Italian seasoned dry bread crumbs

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Thoroughly mix the beef, 1/2 cup of the picante sauce, bread crumbs and egg in a large bowl.

- Sprinkle the cheese down the center of the meat mixture, leaving 1/2-inch border on all sides.
