Ingredients

• 1 lb Lean ground beef (93% lean)
• 0.5 cup Plain breadcrumbs
• 1 large Egg
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened ketchup
• 1 tbsp Yellow mustard
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tbsp Low-fat milk
• 1 tsp Garlic powder
• 1 tsp Onion powder
• 0.5 tsp Paprika
• 0.5 tsp Dried oregano
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Onion, finely chopped
• 0.25 cup Carrot, finely grated
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 tbsp Additional unsweetened ketchup (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a standard loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the lean ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and milk.

Step 3

Add the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper to the bowl, stirring until the seasonings are evenly mixed through the meat.

Step 4

Fold in the finely chopped onion, grated carrot, and parsley. Mix gently with your hands until just combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can make the meatloaf dense.

Step 5

Shape the mixture evenly into a loaf shape and press it gently into the prepared loaf pan.

Step 6

Spread the additional 2 tablespoons of ketchup evenly over the top of the meatloaf for a glossy and flavorful glaze.

Step 7

Bake the meatloaf in the preheated oven for 55–60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

Step 8

Allow the meatloaf to rest for 5–10 minutes once removed from the oven. This helps the juices redistribute, making it moist and easier to slice.

Step 9

Slice into 6 portions and serve warm with your favorite side dishes, such as steamed vegetables or a side salad.
