- In large bowl, using a spoon or your clean hands, mix the beef, onion, eggs, bread crumbs, Italian seasoning, 1/2 cup ketchup and milk until well combined.
- Press the beef mixture in ungreased 8x4-inch loaf pan. Bake 40 minutes.
- Remove from oven. Spread 1/4 cup ketchup evenly over top. Bake an additional 15 to 20 minutes or until meat thermometer inserted in center of loaf reads 160°F.
- Let the meatloaf stand 10 minutes.
