This Italian-inspired meatloaf is a flavorful twist on a classic dish, perfect for a comforting dinner.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Always preheat the oven to ensure even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, egg, Parmesan cheese, parsley, oregano, salt, and minced garlic until well mixed.
Avoid overmixing to keep the meatloaf tender.
Transfer the meat mixture into a casserole dish and shape it into a loaf.
Wet your hands slightly to prevent sticking while shaping.
In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, Dijon mustard, and brown sugar to create the topping.
Adjust the sweetness of the topping by varying the amount of brown sugar.
Spread the topping evenly over the meatloaf.
Use a spatula to ensure the topping covers the meatloaf completely.
Bake the meatloaf in the preheated oven for 1 hour or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
Check the temperature with a meat thermometer for accuracy.
Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, making the meatloaf juicier.
