• Place a rack in the center of the oven, and heat to 350 degrees.
• Put onion, carrot, garlic and celery in the bowl of a food processor, and pulse until the vegetables are chopped medium fine; there should be about 1 2/3 cups of chopped vegetables.
• Combine all of the ingredients, reserving 4 tablespoons of the ketchup.
• Add optional ingredients, if desired. Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts. Form into mounded ovals that do not touch in a 9-by-13-inch heatproof glass baking dish. Bake for 30 minutes. Spread 1 tablespoon of ketchup over the top of each loaf, and bake for 10 minutes. Remove from oven, and let rest for 5 minutes. Using a pancake turner, remove each loaf and serve on individual plates.
