Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
Bread and Milk Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and milk. Let them soak for a few minutes until the breadcrumbs absorb the milk and become soft.
Mixing the Meatloaf: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs and milk mixture, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped fresh parsley, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Mix everything together until well combined.
Bind with Eggs: Add the eggs to the mixture and continue to mix until all the ingredients are thoroughly incorporated.
Shaping the Loaf: Transfer the meat mixture into the greased loaf pan and shape it into a loaf.
Glaze Glamour: In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, brown sugar, and Dijon mustard to create the glaze.
Glaze It On: Spread the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
Baking Brilliance: Bake the meatloaf in the preheated oven for about 1 hour or until it’s cooked through, and the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
Rest and Slice: Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Serving Savory Slices: Slice the Parmesan Meatloaf and serve it hot with your favorite side dishes.
