Directions
1. Mix together the beef, onion, bread crumbs, beaten egg, ketchup, milk and seasonings. Press mixture into a 9-inch pie plate or similar microwave-safe dish.
2. Spread about 2 tablespoons ketchup or chili sauce evenly over top of meat. If your microwave has a temperature probe, insert it so tip is in center of food. Cover tightly with plastic wrap, arranging loosely around probe to vent. If not using a probe, cover tightly and then vent 1 edge slightly.
3. Microwave on medium high for 26-28 minutes, or until probe reaches 170 degrees. Let meat loaf stand for 10 minutes before serving.
