This meatloaf brings my childhood flooding back with each bite. My Dad used to make it for us and I can recall thinking that it was incredibly fancy to have all that gooey melted cheese hidden inside a lush meatloaf.

Yep, I was pretty easily impressed. Come to think of it, I’m still impressed if you give me melted cheese.

I had to make a couple of tweaks to make it low carb, but nothing that changed the core flavour of this meatloaf. I love to serve it with cauliflower rice or mashed cauliflower.

Try it, give my Dad a big clap. Enjoy!
