  6. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius).
  7. Sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cup of Swiss cheese over the top and bake for an additional 5 minutes until melted and bubbly.
  8. Allow the meatloaf to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
