Ingredients

Meatloaf

• 1 pound lean ground beef
• 1 cup dry breadcrumbs
• 1 small onion, diced
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons ketchup
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 2 teaspoons parsley flakes
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt (or to taste)
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Meatloaf Topping

• 1/4 cup ketchup
• 2 tablespoons light brown sugar, packed
• 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

Here's how to make it: 

1. Combine all the meatloaf ingredients in a bowl. Mix until well combined (your hands work best). Put the mixture into a loaf pan. (Use ground turkey instead of ground beef for a lighter meatloaf. For a gluten-free meatloaf, use gluten-free breadcrumbs and check the label on your Worcestershire sauce to make sure it is gluten-free.)
2. In a small bowl, combine all the topping ingredients. Pour over the meatloaf. 
3. Bake the meatloaf in a preheated 350-degree F oven for about 1 hour or until cooked through. Let the meatloaf rest about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with mashed potatoes. Store any leftover meatloaf in an airtight container in the fridge and reheat in the microwave.
