Suggest a better descriptionIn a small bowl, combine tomato sauce and Italian seasoning. Reserve 1/3 cup sauce and set aside, covered, in the refrigerator. In a large mixing bowl, combine remaining tomato sauce mixture with egg, onion, bell pepper, bread crumbs, garlic and salt and pepper; blend well. Add ground beef and mix thoroughly with your very clean hands; form into a round loaf. Take 2 strips of aluminum foil, each about 15 inches long, and form an "x". Place in a slow cooker; place meat loaf on top of foil, being careful to NOT let the meatloaf touch the sides of the slow cooker. Cover slow cooker and cook on LOW for 8 to 10 hours or on HIGH for 4 to 5 hours. During the last 10 minutes of cooking time, pour reserved tomato sauce on top of meatloaf and sprinkle with Mozzarella cheese. Cover and cook for the remaining 10 minutes. Using the foil strips, slowly and carefully pull meatloaf from the slow cooker onto a serving plate. Gently pull foil strips out from under meatloaf. Allow meatloaf to sit for about 10 minutes before slicing.
