Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced carrot, celery, onion, and garlic. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables are soft and fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, Worcestershire sauce, 1/3 cup ketchup, parsley, salt, and black pepper.
Add the sautéed vegetables to the meat mixture and gently mix until everything is evenly incorporated. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the meatloaf dense.
Transfer the meat mixture to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a lightly greased loaf pan. Shape it into a loaf, approximately 9x5 inches if using a baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup ketchup, brown sugar, and Dijon mustard to make the glaze.
Spread the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 160°F (70°C).
Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your delicious meatloaf with vegetables alongside mashed potatoes or a side salad!
