Meatloaf with Sauce

@tuduu

Meatloaf with sauce is a delicious, tender, and juicy main meat dish. It's perfect for Sunday lunch but not only! For a dinner, a lunch with friends and family, meatloaf is loved by everyone, believe me! This version with sauce is exquisite and is a truly phenomenal idea: when you don't feel like rolling a thousand meatballs, the solution is just one, the meatloaf. It is stuffed, rolled, and cooked in a pan: a meatloaf stuffed with ham and provola that turns out very soft thanks to a special ingredient... even if you use breadcrumbs instead of stale bread crumbs! The meatloaf can not only be prepared the day before and then cooked the next day (just wrap it well in plastic wrap or parchment paper) but you can also cook it and then reheat it when needed: in this case, it keeps for up to 3 days in the refrigerator!
