Mushroom Swiss Cheese Meatloaf Recipe

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a skillet, cook the bacon until crispy, then crumble it. In the same skillet, sauté the chopped onions and mushrooms until the mushrooms are tender and the onions are translucent. Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, milk, Parmesan cheese, cooked bacon, shredded Swiss cheese, sautéed onions, and mushrooms. Add the eggs, Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon of ketchup, garlic powder, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Step 4

Shape the meat mixture into a loaf and place it in a baking dish or on a lined baking sheet. Spread the remaining 1/2 cup of ketchup evenly over the top.

Step 5

Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) and the meatloaf is fully cooked through.

Step 6

Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to settle. Then, serve.
