Mexican Meatloaf – Family Style

Ingredients:

1 tsp chili powder
1/4 cup light sour cream
1/2 cup egg beaters
1 cup reduced fat colby and monterey jack cheese, grated 
2 lbs extra lean ground beef
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp salt
2 cloves freshly minced garlic
8 oz diced green chile peppers

Directions:
Pre-heat oven to 400° F (200° C). In a large bowl, mix the ground beef, egg beaters and spices together. Cut a large square of waxed paper and roll out the ground beef mixture into a flat square. Sprinkle with half of the cheese and half of the green chili peppers. Roll the waxed paper, with the meatloaf in the middle, until it shapes into a loaf. Carefully unfold the waxed paper from the meatloaf and remove. Fold the ends of the meatloaf to the cheese and chiles will not spill out during cooking. Place in a loaf pan. Top with other half of cheese, green chiles and sour cream. Bake in oven at 400° F for 45 to 60 minutes.

The whole family will enjoy this! It also makes for great leftovers.
