Taco Meatloaf

Well, here we are... New Year's Eve 2014!! In a mere 8 hours and some random minutes, we will be starting 2015! Hopefully, with the coming of the New Year, there will be many positive changes! I hope everyone has a great evening and stays safe!! Enjoy your time with loved ones, friends and family, alike!

I had some ground beef that I needed to use up and I also needed something quick and easy to throw together, for a quick supper before someone went to work for the night. So, this is what I settled on making!

Enjoy!

Taco Meatloaf
1 lb. lean ground beef
2 slices American cheese slices
1/2 C. shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 C. canned sweet corn kernels
1/4 C. chopped green bell peppers

or... 3/4 Schwan's southwest roasted corn
1/4 C. chopped onions
1/2 C. salsa

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cook peppers and onions for three minutes over medium heat in a pan sprayed with non-stick spray. (If using the Schwan's Southwest Roasted Corn, I just mixed it all in with the ground beef, onions, and seasoning mix.) In a large bowl, combine onions and peppers with ground beef, corn, and seasoning mix. Spread half of the mixture evenly into the bottom of the loaf pan (about 9″x5″), sprayed with nonstick spray.
Layer the two slices of cheese on top of the mixture (try to keep slices away from the pan’s edges). Evenly top with the remaining meat mixture. Pour the salsa over the top of the loaf. Cook in the oven for approximately 30 minutes.Top loaf with shredded cheese. Return loaf to the oven and cook for another 15 minutes.
