First the name is a goof. This meatloaf has nothing to do with my being Hungarian except that I am so it's an appropriate title. This is an adaption of another recipe I found elsewhere (heavily changed too I add). I happen to think it's killer. Hope you do too.

Ingredients:

1 lb ground beef (i prefer chuck)

1 lb ground turkey

1 link mild italian sausage (ground)

1 medium sweet onion (finely chopped)

1 medium pepper (i usually use red, also finely chopped)

3 tablespoons worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon italian seasoning

2 teaspoons salt

1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 cup breadcrumbs

2 eggs (beaten)

1 cup sharp cheddar cheese (shredded)

2 small tomatoes (or 1 large)

1/8 cup apple cider vinegar

2 tablespoons dark brown sugar

Directions:

1. combine first 10 ingredients in large bowl, I use my hands to break up meat then a spoon to add veggies.
2. make a well in middle and add beaten eggs to bread crumbs in the well, then use spoon to mix with meat mixture.
3. layer 1/2 meat mixture in 13 x 9 inch pan, (I prefer a glass pan).
4. lay cheese over meat keeping it 1 inch from edge.
5. layer the rest of the meat over the cheese and pat into shape.
6. use a blender to puree tomato(s).
7. add sugar and vinegar to pureed tomato, mix well then pour over meat loaf.
8. bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 1 hour 15 minutes.
9. serve and enjoy.
