Ingredients

1 medium onion finely chopped about ½ cup.
1 cup panko breadcrumbs.
3 garlic cloves crushed
2 eggs.
1 teaspoon Italian seasonings.
½ teaspoon black pepper.
1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce.
¼ cup chopped parsley.
2 cubes beef bouillon crumbled.
2 pounds ground beef.

For the glaze:

½ cup ketchup
¼ cup brown sugar
1 Tablespoon lemon juice.
2 teaspoon yellow mustard.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a bowl, combine the glaze ingredients until smooth, set aside.
In a large bowl, combine panko bread, diced onion and mix well to moisten all the panko.
Add the rest of the meatloaf ingredients and about ⅓ of the glaze mix.
Mix everything well together and form into a loaf.
Add two slices of bread to the bottom of a 9x5 loaf pan.
Place the meatloaf on top of the bread and bake for 1 hour or until internal temperature reached a minimum of 160F when measured by a meat thermometer.
Drain any excess fat, pour the rest of the glaze on top of the loaf and bake for another 10 minutes.
Slice and serve with extra sauce.

Notes

You can use regular plain bread crumbs as well.
Make sure you finely chop the onion so they have enough juice to moisten the bread crumbs.
I highly recommend making this meatloaf sauce but if you feel lazy you can use barbecue sauce.
If you like meatloaf with crispy edges, form meat mixture into loaf shape and bake in a rimmed baking sheet instead.
This meatloaf recipe goes well with green beans on the side.
Storage: leftover meatloaf can be refrigerated for up to 4-5 days
