Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare and Combine
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it. In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, breadcrumbs, half the ketchup, the onion soup mix, and the eggs. Stir until everything is well blended, but don’t overmix.

Step 2: Form the Loaf
Place the meat mixture onto your prepared pan and shape it into a loaf, roughly 8 inches long and 4 inches wide. Spread the remaining ketchup evenly over the top of the loaf.

Step 3: Bake
Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the meatloaf is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).

Step 4: Let It Rest
Remove from the oven and let it rest for about 5 minutes to allow the juices to settle. Slice and serve warm.
