Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Step 2

Add onion, garlic, and parsley to a food processor.

Step 3

Pulse until everything is finely minced, scraping down the sides as needed.

Step 4

Add mixture to a large bowl along with ground beef, ricotta, Parmesan, eggs, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire, oregano, thyme, sage, salt, and pepper.

Step 5

Use hands to gently mix ingredients until just combined. Do not over mix.

Step 6

Coat a loaf pan with oil and transfer meatloaf mixture to the pan.

Step 7

Gently press it into the pan, using hands to smooth out the surface so it's flat.

Step 8

Place loaf pan on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 40 minutes.

Step 9

Pour off about half of the liquid from the loaf pan. Bake for another 20 minutes or until meatloaf is cooked through.

Step 10

Broil meatloaf for 1-2 minutes on high if desired. Let meatloaf rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Step 11

Serve meatloaf over al dente spaghetti noodles and top with your favorite spaghetti sauce, plenty of Parmesan cheese and fresh chopped parsley. Pairs well with Easy Homemade Garlic Bread!
