How To Make cheesy tuscan garlic meatloaf

  • Step 1
    To make the Tuscan garlic spice mix, combine all ingredients in a small bowl and whisk together with a fork until blended. Set aside.
  • Step 2
    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Season with 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning.
  • Step 3
    Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onion and chopped artichoke hearts; saute for 4 minutes until tender. Remove from heat, season with Tuscan garlic spice mix, and set aside.
  • Step 4
    In a large bowl, combine the ground sirloin, garlic powder, egg whites, bread crumbs, Dijon mustard and Tuscan garlic spice mix; mix together until blended.
  • Step 5
    Transfer the meat mixture to a piece of waxed paper and flatten into a 1/2-inch thick rectangle.
  • Step 6
    Sprinkle with 1 cup shredded Italian cheese blend into the center of the meat rectangle. Add sauteed onion mixture over the cheese and sprinkle remaining cheese on the onion mixture.
  • Step 7
    Pick up the edge of the waxed paper to roll the flattened meat into a log around the filling. Seal the ends and seam and place the loaf into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning on top.
  • Step 8
    Bake in the preheated oven, about 30 minutes or until the meat is no longer pink in the center. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.
