Ingredients
  

1 pound ground beef

1/2 pound ground pork

1 cup finely chopped mushrooms (button or cremini)

1 cup cooked bacon, chopped

1 cup shredded Swiss cheese

1/2 cup breadcrumbs

1/2 cup milk

1/4 cup finely chopped onion

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 large egg

2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Salt and pepper to taste

1/4 cup ketchup (for topping)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9x5 inch loaf pan by lightly greasing it or lining it with parchment paper for easy removal.

    Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels, then chop into small pieces.

      In the same skillet, add the chopped mushrooms and onion, sautéing until the mushrooms are browned and the onions are translucent (about 5-7 minutes). Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

        In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef and pork. Add the sautéed mushrooms and onions, cooked bacon, shredded Swiss cheese, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.

          Mix until well combined, but be careful not to overmix as this can make the meatloaf tough.

            Transfer the mixture into the prepared loaf pan, shaping it into a loaf. Spread ketchup over the top of the meatloaf for added flavor and moisture.

              Bake for 50-60 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C) and the top is nicely browned.

                Let the meatloaf rest for about 10 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.

                  Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
