Let's do something with that leftover meatloaf! Sometimes I find that people just need encouragement to step outside the box. Most people will just make the leftover meatloaf the same way that they ate it the first time. With gravy and whatever sides they enjoy. But if we think about the meatloaf as a vehicle, instead of leftovers, we can transform it into some amazing options. Today, I present to you a Philly cheese meatloaf stack topped with peppers, onions and mushrooms and melted Mozzarella cheese. Eat it as is or stuffed into a roll. No matter how you make it, I know you are going to love it!

The premise here is simple. Take your favorite dish. Think about how you can incorporate or transform leftovers into that with the main dish as the inspiration. Here we are taking our inspiration from the Philly cheesesteak sandwich. Usually, thin sliced ribeye meat topped with sauteed onions, mushrooms and peppers if you like. Either bell or banana. Then melted all together with mozzarella, provolone or if you are so inclined, "whiz". I have opted for the Mozz. Since that is what I had on hand when making the video. If you are a lover of your philly "wit wiz", then by all means, indulge your desires and use that here as well!

I sauteed up some onions, peppers and mushrooms in some butter until browned and caramelized. Then I pushed the veggies off to the side of the pan and browned up a couple of meatloaf slices cold from the fridge. I cooked them until they were nice and brown on each side and warmed through.

Now the magic happens. While the slices are still in the pan, top with the veggies and then with cheese. Pop a lid on the pan and allow the cheese to melt. Then, BOOM! You have a delicious way to enjoy your meatloaf that will taste different, fresh and delicious.

As I said above, you can eat this as is, like we did or you can make this into an open faced sandwich by serving on top of a piece of toasted garlic bread or stuff this into a toasted hoagie or sub roll to enjoy like a regular sandwich. Molly ate hers with the addition of ketchup because that is how we love our philly cheesesteak sandwiches, with ketchup on top. It may sound odd to you but it is the way I grew up eating them. Being from central Jersey, it's hard not to find a delicious cheesesteak sub and with Philadelphia just a hop, skip and a jump away, you have the best at your fingertips.

While this may not be a Pat's or a Geno's, it will be yours. A meatloaf philly cheese stack is a great way to use leftovers and give them new life. Sometimes the best way to eat leftovers is to turn them into something else altogether!

I hope you give this philly cheese meatloaf stack a try, sometime soon and I hope you love it!

Happy Eating!
