Servings: persons

1 egg
1 cup seasoned dry bread crumb
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 cup of your favorite pasta sauce, homemade or in the jar
1 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
3/4 lb lean ground beef
1/2 lb hot Italian sausage
1 cup cubed mozzarella cheese, in about 1/4 inch pieces
additional pasta sauce, for garnish

1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2
In a large bowl, stir together the egg, breadcrumbs (I whir herbed dry stuffing mix in my food processor to make these), garlic, and 1/2 cup pasta sauce until well-mixed.
3
Add remaining ingredients (except the garnish), and mix together well (I do the whole thing in my sturdy KitchenAid mixer, which works quite well).
4
Put into a large loaf pan, top/garnish with additional pasta sauce (I like a*lot* of sauce and so use about a half-cup, but three or four tablespoons would do, too), and bake at 350 degrees F for 1 hour.
5
Serve with rice, spaghetti, or scalloped potatoes.
