Pizza Meatloaf

I overheard a coworker talking about making a Paleo version of Pizza Meatloaf.  I couldn't resist making my own version.  This was delicious and the black olives were perfect in keeping this loaf moist. 

I typically don't make ALOT of meatloaf.  I enjoy the meat blend of ground beef and Italian sausage.
