This is a healthier alternative to a regular meatloaf. The layered effect, using roasted red peppers, sun-dried tomatoes and havarti, not only adds flavor but is beautiful when sliced.

RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line the bottom and sides of a 9- x 5-inch loaf pan with foil or parchment paper.

2. In a bowl, combine the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, garlic, egg, onion, ketchup, dried basil, salt and pepper until well mixed. Pat half of the chicken mixture into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle with the green onions, red pepper, sun-dried tomatoes and all but 2 Tbsp of the havarti. Pat the remaining chicken mixture over the filling. Bake for 40 minutes or until the interior temperature reaches 165°F. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and bake for 2 minutes or until the cheese melts. Let stand for 10 minutes, then slice and serve

Nutrition Watch: Ketchup is a tomato-based product and, as such, has lycopene, a cancer-fighting antioxidant. Experts say that processed tomato products are higher in lycopene than fresh tomatoes. Keep in mind that ketchup is high in sodium (1 Tbsp = 150 mg).
