- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup ketchup (plus extra for topping)
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

Instructions:

> Preheat the Oven:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

>Prepare the Meatloaf Mixture:

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, chopped onion, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Mix the ingredients until well combined, but be careful not to overmix to keep the meatloaf tender.

>Shape the Meatloaf:

Transfer the meat mixture to a greased or parchment paper-lined baking dish.

Shape it into a loaf shape, making sure it's evenly packed.
Top with Ketchup:

Spread an additional layer of ketchup on top of the meatloaf. This will add flavor and create a delicious glaze as it bakes.

> Bake:

Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C).

>Rest and Slice:

Allow the meatloaf to rest for a few minutes before slicing. This helps the juices redistribute, keeping the meatloaf moist.

> Serve:

Slice the meatloaf and serve it with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or a salad.
