Steps:

Remove the skillet from the heat and let the onion mixture cool, then discard the bay leaf.

Use your hands to mix everything together. Transfer the mixture to the center of the prepared baking sheet and form into a loaf. Coat the meatloaf with the remaining 1/2 cup ketchup.?Bake until the meat loaf is firm, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Let set for about 5 minutes before slicing. Slice into 8 pieces for thicker slices, 10 pieces for thinner slices.
