Ingredients

• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 large egg
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1/2 tsp paprika
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 2 cups egg noodles
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
• 1 green bell pepper, sliced
• 1/4 cup chicken broth (or water)

How to Make Sliced Meatloaf with Peppers and Noodles

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, bread crumbs, parsley, onion, garlic, egg, salt, pepper, paprika, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix until well combined.
3. Transfer the meat mixture to a loaf pan and shape it into a loaf. Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C).
4. While the meatloaf is baking, cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
5. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced bell peppers and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
6. Add the cooked noodles and chicken broth to the skillet with the peppers. Toss everything together and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
7. Once the meatloaf is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
8. Serve the sliced meatloaf over the sautéed peppers and noodles.

Tips for the Best Results

• Make sure not to overmix the meatloaf mixture to keep it tender.
• Let the meatloaf rest before slicing to help retain its juices.
• Feel free to experiment with different types of ground meat, like beef or turkey, for varied flavors.

Easy Variations

• Add grated cheese to the meatloaf mixture for an extra cheesy flavor.
• Substitute zucchini or mushrooms for the bell peppers for a different taste.
• Use whole wheat noodles for a healthier option.

What to Serve With It

• A fresh green salad dressed with vinaigrette.
• Garlic bread or crusty rolls for a comforting side.
• Steamed broccoli or green beans for added nutrition.
