For a richer flavor, try using a combination of sharp and mild Cheddar cheeses. Feel free to experiment with different types of apples, such as Granny Smith for a tart flavor or Gala for a sweeter taste. Add a tablespoon of Dijon mustard to the meat mixture for a tangy kick. To prevent the meatloaf from sticking to the pan, line the loaf pan with parchment paper before greasing it.
