Notes
Don't overmix! Overmixing the ingredients results in a dried out meatloaf, so mix only until just combined.
Line the pan: Use parchment paper to line the pan before adding the meat loaf mixture, so you'll be able to remove it from the pan easily.
Dishing up: You can transfer the meatloaf to an oven-safe serving platter before adding the glaze, or serve it straight from the pan - your choice.
