How to Make Cheese And Mushroom Spiral Meatloaf

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, onion, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined.
In a separate bowl, combine shredded cheddar cheese and sliced mushrooms.
Spread half of the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan.
Layer the cheese and mushroom mixture evenly over the meat.
Top with the remaining meat mixture, spreading it evenly to cover the cheese and mushrooms.
Use a knife or toothpick to swirl the cheese and mushroom mixture slightly into the meat, creating a spiral effect.
Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
