Say it with Meat Loaf

Meat Loaf  Singer and Performer
This is the best meat loaf you will ever have. It is crunchy on the outside and delicious on the inside. A little tricky to make. But worth it. Feeds 6 people.

Francie's Magnificent Meat Loaf

2 1/2 lbs of top round ground beef
1 cup of seasoned Italian bread crumb
3 eggs
4 oz of mozzarella
1/4 cup Peccorino Romano grated cheese
1 green bell pepper
1 red bell pepper
1 lg spanish yellow onion
1/2 cup of milk
1 tsp of  black pepper
4 oz of Genoa salami sliced
3 tbs of Olive oil
1tsp of Nutmeg
Mix ground beef with bread crumb, grated cheese, nutmeg and  milk and incorporate fully. Use your hands to mix. Dice peppers and slice onion.  Hard boil eggs. Saute onions and peppers until soft and onions until onions are caramelized. Drain off oil and mix into meat mixture. Peel eggs.

Lay out ground beef mixture and form into a loaf shape. Divide loaf in half length wise. Lay the eggs length wise along the loaf. Place slices of salami in between and evenly distribute mozzarella cut up into cubes along with the salami and eggs. All of these should be at least 2 inches from the ends of the loaf. Put the top of the meat loaf over the bottom and reform pushing and compressing gently but firmly. Place in narrow oblong baking pan. Leave space of 2 to 3 inches all around.  Pan should not mold the loaf. Loaf should just sit in it.
