CLASSIC MEATLOAF WITH SWEET AND TANGY GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• If using a loaf pan, spray it with nonstick cooking spray. If using a sheet pan, line it with foil.
• Combine breadcrumbs and milk in a large bowl and set aside to soak.
• Combine onions, carrots, and garlic in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until finely chopped (the largest pieces should be about the size of a pea). (Note: If you prefer, you can also finely chop these by hand.)
• Melt butter in a large saute pan over medium heat.
• Add onions, carrots, and garlic with a pinch of salt.
• Saute until vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes.
• Set aside to cool for 5 minutes.
• To breadcrumbs and milk, add beef, egg, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper.
• Top with cooked carrots and onions.
• Using your hands, gently mix everything together until just combined. (Try not to over mix or this will make your meatloaf more tough.)
• Gently shape the meat mixture into a loaf shape and transfer to loaf pan or sheet pan.
• Transfer meatloaf to oven and bake for 55 to 60 minutes (use an instant read thermometer if you have it - the center will register 155°F when the meatloaf is done).
• While meatloaf cooks, whisk together ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard.
• Remove meatloaf when it has about 20 minutes left to cook and spread glaze over top.
• Rest meatloaf for 10 minutes then slice and serve.
