Meatloaf never tasted so good, stuffed with pumpkin / squash and cheese. Bake it with your favourite fall veggies to make a quick and easy dinner recipe.
Pre-heat oven to 350F (180C). Lightly grease a large baking dish or loaf pan.
Puree can either be made by boiling or roasting. Mash with a fork rather than puree in a blender.
In a medium bowl mix together ground beef, ground pork, crumbled bread, egg, parmesan cheese, minced garlic, parsley, salt and pepper.
Place half the meat mixture in the baking pan, top with half the sliced cheese, top with cooked pumpkin / squash, top with remaining cheese and remaining meat mixture.
FRESH VEGGIES FOR ROASTING
In a large bowl toss together the potatoes, carrots (or other veggies of choice), olive oil, rosemary, oregano, salt and pepper. Place the veggies around the meatloaf and bake for approximately 40-45 minutes or until meat is cooked. (Temperature 160F / 70C). Let sit 8-10 minutes before slicing and serving. If veggies are yet done, then raise the temperature and cook while meatloaf is resting. Enjoy!
