Instructions:
Preheat and Prepare: Oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
Mix the Meatloaf: In a large bowl, combine ground beef, onion, garlic, breadcrumbs, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix until well incorporated.
Shape and Arrange: Transfer the mixture to the baking dish, forming a loaf in the center. Place sliced potatoes around the loaf, overlapping slightly. Season with more salt and pepper.
Bake Covered: Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Then, uncover.
Add Cheese: Sprinkle cheddar cheese over meatloaf and potatoes. Bake uncovered for another 15 minutes, or until cheese is bubbly and meatloaf is thoroughly cooked.
Garnish and Serve: Let cool slightly, then garnish with parsley. Serve hot and enjoy!
