Ultimate Cheesy Meatloaf & Mashed Potato Casserole

Instructions

1. Prep the Mashed Potatoes:
   • Boil potatoes in salted water until tender (15-20 mins). Drain, then mash with butter, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
2. Make the Meatloaf:
   • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
   • In a large bowl, gently mix all meatloaf ingredients until just combined (overmixing = dense meatloaf!).
   • Shape into individual mini-loaves for even cooking.
3. Assemble the Casserole:
   • Spread mashed potatoes in a foil-lined baking dish.
   • Arrange meatloaves on top.
4. Bake to Perfection:
   • Cover with foil and bake for 30 mins.
   • Uncover, sprinkle with cheese, and bake 10-15 mins more until bubbly and golden.
5. Serve & Enjoy:
   • Garnish with fresh herbs. Let rest 5 mins before serving.
