Do you cook meatloaf covered or uncovered?
Bake the meatloaf uncovered. This will allow it to form a crispy crust and brown the cheese sprinkled on the outside.
Can I freeze this meatloaf?
Absolutely. Freeze the meatloaf wrapped tightly in plastic wrap wrapped in aluminum foil in the freezer for 3 to 4 months. To reheat, defrost the meatloaf in the refrigerator for 24 hours before preparing it according to the cooking instructions in the recipe card below.
Can I make this meatloaf ahead of time?
Yes, prepare and wrap the meatloaf in plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready. When you’re ready to bake, uncover and bake as directed in the recipe card below.
Can I use ground turkey instead?
Yes, substitute ground turkey for the ground meatloaf mixture if you prefer.
