- 1 8 oz Tomato sauce- save part of the can for topping meatloaf. (can use ketchup instead)

Topping for Meatloaf
- 1/4 cup Parmesean cheese
- 1/4 cup Mozzarella cheese
- Parsley and oregano
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- In a large mixing bowl add all Meatloaf ingredients and mix with hands. Do not over-mix or the Meatloaf will be tough.
- Place in metal or glass meatloaf pan, drizzle a little tomato paste over top (I always keep a tube of tomato paste in the frig. You can use just what you need and not have to open a can), and cook for 50 minutes.
- Remove from oven and add Meatloaf Toppings. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and cook another 10 minutes. Let cook for 5-10 minutes.
