Ingredients:

For the meatloaf:

• 1 ½ lb. Ground beef
• ½ medium onion thinly sliced
• 1 medium bell pepper thinly sliced
• ½ C. mozzarella cheese shredded
• ½ C. crushed pork rinds
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp. garlic powder
• 2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
• 1 Tbsp. Olive oil

For the cheese sauce:

• 1 C. mozzarella cheese shredded

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

4. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, pork rind crumbs, egg, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce as well as salt and pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly with your hands until well combined.

6. Make a trough down the center of the meatloaf, and stuff the inside with the cooked peppers and onions, as well as ½ cup of mozzarella cheese. Form the meat back over the filling in the center of the loaf, and bake for 1 hour, or until the meatloaf is completely cooked through. 
7. When the meatloaf is close to being done, add the butter, cream cheese, and heavy whipping cream for the cheese sauce to a pot over medium heat on the stove. 
8. Bring the mixture to a low boil until it begins to thicken. 
9. Add the mozzarella cheese to the sauce mixture, and stir until thickened. Add salt and pepper to taste.

NOTE: You can substitute finely crushed crackers (like Zaltines) for the pork rinds. But it really does turn out beautifully with the pork rinds. And not as salty.
