Instructions:
Preheat and Prepare:

Lightly grease a loaf pan.

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, bread crumbs, egg, milk, diced onions, diced green peppers, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined.
Form the Meatloaf Base:

Add the Filling:

Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.
Add the Topping:
Remove the meatloaf from the oven and drain any excess fat if necessary.
