Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350F.
In a medium skillet sauté the diced onion & peppers in oil until tender & soft.
Once peppers and onions are cooked, you then mix them in with the rest of the ingredients, including meat & milk - (except sliced cheese) in a large mixing bowl. Work mixture with your hands until fully incorporated.
Lightly spray a loaf pan with pam spray or butter or even olive oil, then take exactly HALF of the mixture & place into the prepared loaf pan
Top it with 4 slices of your choice of cheese
Place the remaining meat mixture on top of the cheese BUT reserving the last 4 slices, set those aside
Bake for 30 minutes
Remove from the oven, top with the last 4 slices, sprinkle with parsley then put back into the oven for a remaining 10-15 minutes OR until the cheese is melted to your liking (i like mine a bit crispy)
Let stand a few minutes before removing from the pan, then serve.
