This was a HUGE hit! Everyone went nuts over this Pizza Meatloaf, even my 3 and 7-year-old grandchildren. My grandson just kept saying “I love this pizza!” This was put at the top of our list as one of our favorite meatloaves!

There is pizza sauce and Parmesan cheese inside the meatloaf with pizza sauce and mozzarella cheese smothered all over the top! It was amazing and one of the best meatloaves I have ever made.

  10. Hi there. How are you? Another great recipe to try eventually. Made Beef pot roast last night and my 14year old refused to eat it. Says she would rather have meatloaf. She ended up going to bed hungry as she needs to learn to eat what is served (I felt bad,because I didn’t want her hungry) Well I see this this morning (I chuckled) This would be a great meatloaf to serve as she would eat pizza morning, noon and supper if she had her way.

    • Hi! I’m doing great thanks for asking! My grandkids are the same way! They eat supper here 3 nights a week so I feel for you. I made this meatloaf when they were here for that same reason! It was a HUGE hit!
