Remember Mom's meatloaf? It was always a boring, dry affair. (Hi Mom! Thanks for the expensive college education I'm using to insult your food in public!) How awesome would Mom's meatloaf have been, had you taken a bite and found delicious gooey cheese in the center? Improve your childhood recipes with this delicious, mozzarella-y loaf, with a Parmesan mashed potato bringing you even more cheesy goodness. Moms everywhere, we love you… but this meatloaf is here to stay.
