  3. Mix gently with your hands or a spoon until the ingredients are evenly combined. Don’t overwork the meat.
  4. Shape the mixture into a loaf about 8–9 inches long and place it in the prepared baking dish. Smooth the top lightly.
Cooking

  2. Remove from the oven and let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
