I tried two new recipes out on them and they both turned out very good and everyone enjoyed them. The first was an appetizer from Pillsbury the second is an Italian Meatloaf recipe that I kind of made up. The boy, my dad and his dad all love meatloaf so I thought I would give it a try, but I don't like regular meatloaf at all, probably because I don't like ketchup, but I made this up.
Pizza Stuffed Pull Aparts
Ingredients:
2 cans Pillsbury Buttermilk Grands Biscuits

cubes of cheddar, colby, mozzarella or monterey jack cheese
1 egg
1/2 C. parmesan cheese

spaghetti or pizza sauce for dipping
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 375. Separate dough into 16 2-inch rounds. Spray cookie or baking sheet with cooking spray.
2. Place 1 to 2 cheese cubes and three slices of pepperoni into each biscuit and wrap around, seal and roll into a ball. Place 6 in a circle and 10 around the inner 6.
3. Brush with whisked egg, sprinkle with parmesan and Italian seasoning. Bake 25 to 40 minutes depending on oven. Serve with warm pizza sauce.

That meatloaf looks delicious! I have been craving sausage for weeks. I keep joking that I want a nitrate platter delivered to the maternity ward after I deliver. Sausage, pepperoni, hot dogs, bacon, basically if it's got nitrates, bring it on!
My hubby is Italian and he loves meatloaf. I will have to try these out on him. thanks for these.
Yummy! I know 3 boys who are going to love these recipes. Thank you.
