• Mix 1/2 cup bread crumbs, cheese, parsley, garlic, salt and pepper, reserving the remaining bread crumbs to use as necessary.
• Add the meat and use a fork to mix the ingredients uniformly.
• Add the eggs and knead it with your hands until a "dough" ball forms, it should hold its shape and not be too dry and crumbly (add some water) or too sticky sloppy (add more bread crumbs).
• Mold the meat mixture into the loaf pan and top with a layer of ketchup as desired.
• Bake for 70 minutes. Slices best when cooled and tastes even better reheated as leftovers!
