To make this cheese steak meatloaf, I started by heating some oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
I added some diced onions and diced green peppers to the skillet.
I also added some sliced mushrooms to the skillet.
STEP 2:
I added some salt and pepper to the skillet and stirred all of the ingredients together well.
I cooked the vegetables until the onions were translucent and the mushrooms were starting to brown.
Then I removed the pan from the heat and set it aside.
STEP 3:
I dumped two pounds of lean ground beef into a large mixing bowl.
I added some eggs and milk to the bowl.

I also added some salt, pepper, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce and steak spice to the bowl.
STEP 5:

STEP 6:
Then I lined a 9.5 x 5 inch loaf pan with aluminium foil and sprayed it well with cooking spray.
I scooped approximately ⅔ of the meat mixture into the loaf pan and pressed it into the bottom and up the sides leaving the center hollowed out.
STEP 7:
I placed some shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese in the center of the meatloaf.
I set aside ¼ cup of the onion, peppers and mushroom mixture.
Then I dumped the remaining onions, peppers and mushrooms on top of the cheese along the center of the meatloaf.
STEP 8:
Then I placed the remaining ⅓ of the meat mixture on top and spread it out to cover all of the filling completely.
Then I placed the loaf pan in the oven and baked the meatloaf for 50 minutes.
STEP 9:
After 50 minutes, I removed the loaf pan from the oven.
Then I sprinkled some more shredded cheese on top.

I returned the pan to the oven and baked it for an additional ten minutes until the cheese on top was completely melted.
Then I removed the pan from the oven again.
I left the meatloaf to rest in the pan for about 5 minutes.

I made this tonight and it was amazing. The only thing I did do differently was I used 1lb 93/7 ground sirloin and 1lb hot Italian sausage.

I have made this twice . I use oatmeal instead of bread crumbs, but it is a huge hit. I best write this one down in case I can't find it.
