This Italian meatloaf is designed to be as easy as any other meatloaf recipe, but impressive enough to serve to family and friends on special occasions and large gatherings.
I know what you are thinking… ‘uggh, meatloaf, my grade school cafeteria nightmares!’ I hear ya. I was never really a fan of meatloaf until Mark introduced me to his Italian-Style Meatloaf with a Garlic Tomato Sauce, and now I can’t get enough of this, and I request it often.
Italian-Style Meatloaf with Garlic Tomato Sauce
What makes it Italian-Style?
You may have had the traditional meatloaf, typically made with ground beef, maybe some veggies are thrown in there, and topped with a bbq sauce or some type of weird ketchup-based sauce. Nothing about that is Italian. Nothing. But this version has all the Italian flavors you love and enjoy and makes your home smell amazing while it’s cooking. Also, the garlic tomato sauce you could literally use as a pasta sauce without thinking twice!
This outstanding Italian Meatloaf recipe is sure to please the entire family, and the leftovers (if you’re lucky enough to have any!) are amazing!
