  • Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each into a small loaf about 3 inches long.

  • Remove the sheet from the oven and spoon marinara sauce over each loaf. Sprinkle the mozzarella on top.
  • Return to the oven and bake for 10 more minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees.

Mix the meat gently and avoid overworking it so the loaves stay tender. Leftovers reheat well in a covered skillet with a splash of extra marinara to keep them moist. For a fuller meal, serve the meatloaves over cooked pasta or with a simple green salad.
