Description
A delightful twist on a classic meatloaf, combining rich garlic and nutty Parmesan flavors in a moist and flavorful dish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 pounds ground beef or turkey
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- ½ cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- ½ cup milk
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Combine all the ingredients: ground meat, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, garlic, egg, parsley, onion, milk, and seasoning in a large bowl.
- Mix gently until just combined. Over-mixing can lead to a dense loaf!
- Shape the mixture into a loaf and place it in a greased baking dish or on a lined baking sheet.
- Bake for about 60 minutes, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 160°F (70°C).
- Let it rest for about 10 minutes before slicing to retain the juices.
Notes
For a lighter option, substitute ground turkey. Use gluten-free breadcrumbs if needed.
