My children were not fond of meat loaf until I "dressed up" this recipe with pizza flavor. Now the five children are grown and have families of their own, and they still make and serve this hearty, moist meat loaf. — Darlis Wilfer, Phelps, Wisconsin

I never liked meat loaf as a kid and now when I make this recipe my kids love it. I use ground venison instead of beef and italian bread crumbs for the crackers. After it is done we slice it and put the sauce and cheese on the individual slices. (That way if you have a traditionalist they can still do the ketchup) Very good.

This is my go-to meatloaf recipe. I have been making it for several years now, ever since I found the recipe in a Taste of Home booklet in the magazine rack at the grocery store. I don't change a thing with the recipe. Several family members and friends have asked for the recipe as well and I gladly share!

This recipe was very easy to prepare and it was loaded with flavor. Instead of real onion, I used 1 tsp minced onion and did not include the bell peppers or mushrooms. Since I didn't have sliced mozzarella, I sprinkled shredded on top. It was great
