To make this pizza meatloaf, I started by lining a 9 x 5 loaf pan with foil and spraying it well with cooking spray.

I dumped some lean ground beef into a large mixing bowl.

I added some Italian seasoned bread crumbs to the bowl.

I also added two eggs to the bowl.

I used my hands to mix all of the ingredients until fully combined.

I placed two thirds of the meat mixture in the foil lined loaf pan.

I pressed the meat mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the loaf pan to form a hollow center.

Then I poured some pizza sauce into the hollow and spread it out evenly.

I sprinkled some shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza sauce.

Then I placed some pepperoni slices on top of the cheese.

I sprinkled some diced green peppers on top of the pepperoni.

I also sprinkled some diced red onions on top.

Then I placed the remaining third of the meat mixture on top and pressed it out to cover all of the filling.

Then I poured some pizza sauce on top.

I spread the pizza sauce out evenly.

I placed the pan in the oven and baked the meatloaf for fifty minutes.

After fifty minutes I removed the pan from the oven.

I sprinkled some shredded mozzarella cheese on top.

I placed some pepperoni slices on top of the cheese.

Then I sprinkled some green peppers and red onions on top.

I returned the meatloaf to the oven and continued baking until the cheese on top was completely melted.

Then I removed the pan from the oven.

I left the meatloaf to rest in the pan for five minutes.

Then I used the foil to lift the meatloaf out of the pan.

Then the meatloaf was ready to slice.

I served my meatloaf with some cooked spaghetti noodles.
