Stuffed Meatloaf

Ingredients:
(yields 5-6 servings)



1.5 lbs ground meat (you can mix any kind that you like, I used 1 lb italian sausage and 1/2 lb ground beef).
4 slices bread (any kind will do)
3 hard boiled eggs (see how to do this here)
2 raw eggs
3/4 cup diced onion
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup diced red bell peppers
1 tsp dill weed
1 tsp salt
3 cups water in a bowl (for soaking bread)


Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Soak the slices of bread in the bowl of water. Flip the slices a few times to ensure that all the bread gets soaked thoroughly. Gently squeeze excess water out of the bread. Set aside.

2. In a large bowl, place all ingredients except for the hard-boiled eggs.

3. Mix this together with your hands, until well blended, like in the photo below:

4. Spread the 1/2 of meatloaf mixture onto a 9x13 glass baking dish. Place the 3 hard-boiled eggs (without the shell) in a row on top of the meatloaf mixture. Then cover the eggs with the remaining 1/2 meatloaf mixture and form into a "loaf".

5. Cover with foil and bake at 350F for 1 hour. After 1 hour, remove foil and bake for 15 min uncovered. Slice and serve.

Enjoy!
