Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground beef
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup milk
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 eggs
- 0.5 cup ketchup
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
- 0.25 cup ketchup (for glaze)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar (for glaze)
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard (for glaze)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a loaf pan.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, milk, shredded cheddar cheese, eggs, ketchup, Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and chopped parsley. Mix until just combined; avoid overmixing to keep the meatloaf tender.
Shape the meat mixture into a loaf and place it on the prepared baking sheet or into the loaf pan.
In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of ketchup, brown sugar, and yellow mustard to make the glaze.
Spread the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
Place the meatloaf in the oven and bake for 60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm with your favorite sides, like mashed potatoes and green beans. Enjoy!
