In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, onion, garlic, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined. Do not overwork the mixture.
Shape the meatloaf mixture into a loaf shape and place it on a large piece of aluminum foil. Fold the edges of the foil up slightly to create a barrier to catch any juices.
Prepare the vegetables by placing the baby carrots, potato chunks, and green beans in a separate bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with paprika, and add a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
Add the prepared vegetables to the bottom of the slow cooker in an even layer.
Set the meatloaf on top of the vegetables, keeping it on the foil barrier.
Cover the slow cooker with its lid and cook on low for 5 hours, or until the meatloaf reaches an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
Carefully remove the meatloaf and allow it to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Serve slices of the meatloaf with the tender vegetables on the side. Enjoy!
