Be sure that your ground beef is at room temperature. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Put the ground beef, bread crumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, basil, grated parmesan, and grated mozzarella into the large bowl and mix by hand gently. Do not mush the meat to tightly, allow it to stay a bit grainy.
Step2
Add the egg white and Worcestershire sauce and blend again, gently. Put the mixture in the loaf pan and spread evenly, be sure not to push down, leave the mixture a little loose. Shake just a little more basil on the top.
Step3
Put the pan into the 400 degree oven for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees after 10 minutes. Do not remove any of the liquid in the pan. Continue to cook for another 15-20 minutes. Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let stand for 10 minutes. Cut and serve with your favorite side dishes
Tips & Warnings
Try as hard as possible not to mash the meat together when mixing it.
Be sure to turn the temperature down after 10 minutes
Make sure to let the meatloaf stand after cooking for 10 minutes
