Materials

1-2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion small diced
2 carrots small diced
⅓ cup celery small diced
3 garlic cloves minced
3 cups ground beef grass-fed or 80/20 all-natural
1- 1 ½ cups breadcrumbs gluten free optional
1 egg whisked
1 tsp salt kosher or table salt
1 tsp pepper
½ teaspoon liquid smoke optional

Glaze Ingredients:

⅓ cup ketchup
¼ cup sugar
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
1 TBS worcestershire sauce

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Spray a 9 inch loaf pan evenly with oil, or line the bottom with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Sauté onions, carrots, celery and garlic with olive oil or water over medium heat for 5 minutes, until the onions are clear in color. Remove from heat and set aside.
whisk the egg and mix with the raw ground beef and bread crumbs in a bowl.
Add the cooked vegetable mixture to the beef mixture. If the combined mixture seems too moist, add an extra ½ cup of bread crumbs. Stir with a large wooden spoon until very well combined.
Press the beef mixture in the sprayed or lined pan, pushing down evenly with your hand. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
In a small bowl, stir together the glaze ingredients.
After 30 minutes, remove the foil and paint the balsamic glaze over the loaf evenly (like frosting a cake) and bake for another 15 minutes, uncovered. Remove from the oven.
Allow to sit for at least 20 minutes before slicing, evenly with a sharp knife. Careful to slice smoothly, not sawing back and forth. Sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired before serving.

Notes

For dinner, I like to add mashed potatoes or herby cauliflower rice with one or two more easy side dishes. Meatless Meatloaf also tasted even better the next day and can become a second me as a delicious sandwich for lunch!
