Here's my grandma's recipe:

1 lb ground beef
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 tsp fresh chopped garlic
3/4 cup stuffing croutons-italian herb flavor
1/4 tsp dried oregano (optional)
1/4 tsp dried parsley (optional)
1 egg
1/2-1 cup milk
ketchup
mustard

Preheat oven to 350

Put croutons in plastic bag, and pound with rubber mallet or go over with rolling pin.

Mix ground beef, onion, garlic, croutons, herbs, and egg together in medium bowl, using your hands. Add 1/2 cup of milk, and work in, adding more milk if mixture is not wet enough. Let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes and rework with hands (Croutons will soak up moisture). Shape, and place in loaf pan. Top with squiggles of ketchup and mustard. Cover with foil, bake 35 minutes. Remove from oven, uncover, and bake 15 more minutes. Take out, let stand 5-10 minutes and serve.

My husband also really likes his with BBQ sauce on top, with the ketchup and mustard. I personally don't eat this (vegetarian here), but he LOVES it!!! (And, since I love him, I take one for the team and mix the meat up with my bare hands!!!)
