Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, onion, garlic, salt, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and ketchup. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Take half of the meat mixture and press it evenly into the bottom of the prepared loaf pan.
Sprinkle the cheddar cheese evenly over the meat layer, leaving a small border around the edges. Follow with a layer of mozzarella cheese on top.
Add the remaining meat mixture over the cheese layers, pressing and shaping it to fully cover the cheese filling.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 160°F (71°C).
Remove the meatloaf from the oven and sprinkle additional shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese on top. Return to the oven and bake for another 5 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and is bubbly.
Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
