Ingredients

- 0.5 pounds Italian sausage
- 1 cups Breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 cups Milk
- 2 Large eggs
- 2 cloves Minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoons Dried oregano

- 1 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 1.5 cups Marinara sauce
- 1 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, Italian sausage, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, milk, eggs, garlic, parsley, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Mix gently with your hands or a spoon until all ingredients are fully incorporated, being careful not to overwork the mixture.
Step 3
Transfer the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan, pressing it evenly to form a loaf shape.
Step 4
Spread 1/2 cup of marinara sauce evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
Step 5
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes.
Step 6
Remove the meatloaf from the oven and spread the remaining marinara sauce over the top. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
Step 7
Return the meatloaf to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 160°F (71°C).
Step 8
Allow the meatloaf to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy with a side of roasted vegetables or a simple green salad.
