Jalapeno Popper Meatloaf Recipes

Steps:

• If needed, place the cream cheese in a bowl and soften it in the microwave wtih 10-15 second increments.
• Combine: cream cheese, chili powder, cumin, onion flakes, and jalepeno.
• Add cream cheese mixture to the ground turkey and combine.
• Add: eggs, onion soup mix, cracker crumbs, and ketchup and mix to a uniform consistency.
• Place in a loaf pan and bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes, or until done.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix together ground beef, bread crumbs, eggs, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl until combined. Press about 3/4 of the meat mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a loaf pan, leaving a well in the middle.
• Mix together cream cheese, 1 cup Cheddar cheese, jalapeno peppers, garlic powder, remaining 1 teaspoon salt, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a separate bowl until combined. Press cream cheese mixture into the well of the meatloaf. Cover with remaining meat mixture, pressing along the edges to seal. Cover with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, 30 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Remove from the oven, brush with barbeque sauce, and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons grated Cheddar. Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Place meatloaf under the broiler and cook until barbeque sauce is bubbly and cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes.
