This is such an amazing dish and is so simple and easy to make. It looks complicated, but let me tell you, it is fool proof. The best part is, it looks elegant enough to serve at a party and it makes a ton so it really does serve a crowd. You can keep leftovers for the week well in the fridge or make it for the whole family to enjoy. Boy oh boy, it is positively delicious and I cannot get enough.

Ingredients
1 pound ground pork
1 pound ground beef
2 large eggs
1/4 cup Panko breadcrumbs
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 to 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
1 small yellow onion (grated)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup grated Kraft Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup pasta sauce (marinara sauce, homemade, meatless)
1/2 cup Kraft shredded cheese (Italian cheese blend)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a loaf pan (I use glass bread loaf pan) with cooking spray, set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the ground pork and beef, eggs, breadcrumbs, thyme, oregano, basil, garlic, onion, salt, pepper and Parmesan cheese. Try not over handle the mixture, otherwise it will get tough.
Place the mixture in the greased loaf pan, and form into a loaf. Top the meatloaf with pasta sauce.
Place filled loaf pan on a baking sheet, and bake for 1 hour.
Remove the meatloaf from the oven and drain any grease from the meats at this time.
Sprinkle the top with the remaining shredded cheese.
Place the meatloaf back in the oven, and bake until the cheese is melted.
Remove the meatloaf from the oven, and let sit for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
