For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce to the meat mixture. To prevent the meatloaf from sticking to the pan, lightly grease the loaf pan before adding the mixture. Allow the meatloaf to rest for 10-15 minutes after baking before slicing to help it retain its moisture. This recipe doubles or triples easily for meal prepping. Ensure you adjust the baking time accordingly. Feel free to substitute other finely chopped vegetables like carrots or zucchini for added nutrients.
