01 - 450 g lean ground beef
02 - 75 g dried bread crumbs
03 - 1 large egg, beaten
04 - 120 ml ketchup, divided
05 - 80 ml 2% milk
06 - 2.5 ml Lawry's seasoned salt or regular table salt

08 - 5 ml ground sage

→ For Roasting

12 - 15 ml vegetable oil
13 - 10 ml dried rosemary
14 - 10 ml minced garlic
15 - Salt and black pepper, to season vegetables

# Step-by-Step Directions:

01 - Preheat the oven to 200°C. Lightly coat a large baking sheet with non-stick spray and set aside.
02 - In a large bowl, gently combine ground beef, bread crumbs, and beaten egg until just incorporated.
03 - Add half the ketchup, milk, seasoned salt, black pepper, and sage. Mix until evenly distributed, avoiding overmixing.
04 - Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions. Shape each into a ball or disk and arrange evenly on the prepared sheet pan.
05 - Spoon the remaining ketchup onto each meatloaf and sprinkle with brown sugar.
06 - Distribute potatoes and asparagus in a single layer around the meatloaves. Drizzle vegetables with oil and season with rosemary, garlic, salt, and black pepper.
07 - Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake uncovered for 35–40 minutes, or until meatloaves are cooked through and potatoes are tender.
08 - Remove the pan from the oven. Allow to stand for 5 minutes before plating and serving.

# Helpful Notes:

01 - Substitute asparagus with green beans or broccoli as preferred. Different types of potatoes, such as Yukon gold or red, also work well.
02 - For added flavor, tuck a piece of cheese into the center of each meatloaf or swap ketchup for barbecue sauce.
03 - Shape the mini meatloaves evenly for consistent cooking; avoid overmixing the meat to maintain tenderness.
