For the Meatloaf:


Amount of Ingredients


Ground beef with 85% lean fat content, 2 pounds.


1 cup of breadcrumbs


1/2 cup of milk


Chopped onion: 1 medium.


Chopped garlic: 2 cloves


2 big eggs


1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce


Use half a teaspoon of salt and half a teaspoon of pepper.


1 teaspoon of dried thyme


Half a cup of ketchup


Two tablespoons of brown sugar.


To make the mashed potatoes:


Amount of Ingredients


2 pounds of peeled and chopped potatoes.


1/2 cup of milk


Butter without salt, 1/4 cup.


Add salt and pepper according to your preference.


Regarding the topping:


Amount of Ingredients


1 1/2 cups of grated cheddar cheese


Chopped fresh parsley to decorate.


Directions:

1. Prepare the Meatloaf:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, chopped onion, garlic, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and thyme. Mix everything together until well combined.

Place the mixture into the prepared loaf pan and shape it into a loaf.

In a small bowl, mix the ketchup and brown sugar. Spread this mixture over the top of the meatloaf.

Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C). Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

2. Make the Mashed Potatoes:

While the meatloaf is baking, boil the potatoes in salted water until they are tender, about 15-20 minutes.

Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the milk, butter, salt, and pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy. Set aside.

3. Add the Topping:

Once the meatloaf is done baking, sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese on top and return it to the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and is bubbly.

4. Serve:

Slice the meatloaf and serve it with the creamy mashed potatoes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for added color and flavor. Enjoy!
