1 8oz Can Tomato Sauce
1 whole Egg, Beaten
1 cup Breadcrumbs
2 cloves Garlic
1/4 teaspoons Dried Thyme
1/4 teaspoons Dried Basil
1/2 cups Onion, Chopped And Sauteed
1- 1/2 cup Shredded Cheese
2 pounds Lean Ground Beef
3 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
1/4 cups Ketchup
1/2 teaspoons Dry Mustard
1/4 teaspoons Nutmeg

1
Mix tomato sauce, egg, breadcrumbs, garlic, thyme, basil, onion and cheese together.
2
I like Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack best but any cheese will work.
3
I even mix in regular Jack and then top half of the meatloaf with the Pepper Jack slices for Hubby and I since the kids dont care for the kick.
4
Another way to spice it up (if you dont have any picky eaters) is to add half to one whole teaspoon of Cayenne Pepper to the egg and breadcrumb mixture.
5
Add meat and mix thoroughly with your fingers.
6
Remember, we dont want any chunks of just meat.
7
Smoosh mixture down firmly into a loaf pan.
8
Bake at 350 for 1 hour.
9
Meanwhile, mix Piquant sauce together by combining the brown sugar, ketchup, dry mustard and nutmeg together.
10
When meatloaf has baked for 1 hour, take it out and spread sauce over the top of it.
11
Put it back in the oven and bake for 15 more minutes.
12
Let it sit for minute and then drain off any grease that may have pooled up in the pan.
13
Have no fear, this grease, if you are using the lean beef, is only from the cheese melting.
