- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 leaves Fresh basil leaves (optional, for garnish)

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Lightly grease a small baking dish with olive oil.
Step 3
Arrange the leftover meatloaf slices in the prepared baking dish, leaving a bit of space between each slice.

Spoon the marinara sauce evenly over each slice, ensuring they are fully covered.
Step 5
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the top of the marinara sauce.
Step 6
Add grated Parmesan cheese as a finishing layer for extra flavor.
Step 7
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil to prevent the cheese from over-browning.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes to let the cheese bubble and brown slightly.
Step 9
Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes.

Garnish with fresh basil leaves (if using) before serving.
Step 11
Serve hot as a standalone dish or over a bed of cooked pasta for a complete meal.
