PEPPER-JACK MEATLOAF
I had some leftover Pepper-Jack cheese from a picnic which we didn't use. My family will not eat this cheese on sandwiches or burger so I thought I'd try making a meat loaf with it. Oh my this was a good combination of ingredients!

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
- 2. In large bowl, thoroughly combine all ingredients except cheese slices.
- 3. Spray a 2-1/2-Quart Oval Casserole Dish or large loaf pan lightly with cooking spray. Turn meat mixture into casserole and mold into a loaf shape.
- 4. Bake 1 hour then layer pepper-jack cheese over top and bake for another 10 minutes. Meatloaf should not be pink in center and the juices should show no pink color. Let stand 5 minutes; drain off any grease before slicing.
Tips:
- Choose the right ground beef. For a flavorful meatloaf, use a combination of 80% lean and 20% fat ground beef. This will help keep the meatloaf moist and juicy.
- Add some spice. Pepper Jack cheese is a great way to add a little kick to your meatloaf. You can also add other spices, such as chili powder, cumin, or garlic powder.
- Don't overmix the meatloaf. Overmixing will make the meatloaf tough. Just mix the ingredients until they are combined.
- Bake the meatloaf in a loaf pan. This will help keep the meatloaf from falling apart.
- Let the meatloaf rest before slicing. This will help the meatloaf hold its shape and make it easier to slice.

Pepper Jack meatloaf is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal.
