Ingredienser
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 cup Italian breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

fremgangsmåte
 

  • In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, parsley, oregano, basil, garlic, Parmesan, salt, and pepper. Mix with your hands until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  • Shape the mixture into a loaf that will fit inside your slow cooker. Place it in the center of the slow cooker.
  • Cover and cook on low until the loaf is firm and cooked through.
  • Spread the marinara sauce evenly over the top of the meatloaf. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella on top of the sauce.
  • Cover again and continue cooking until the cheese is melted and the sauce is warmed.

merknader

For a stronger herb flavor, mix half the marinara into the meat mixture before shaping the loaf. Leftovers reheat well in the microwave with a little extra marinara to keep the meat moist. If you prefer a milder cheese pull, use part-skim mozzarella instead of full-fat.
