Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
In a large bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs and milk. Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the breadcrumbs to fully absorb the liquid. This is key for a moist meatloaf.
While the breadcrumbs soak, heat the olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and cook for 4-5 minutes until softened and translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
To the bowl with the soaked breadcrumbs, add the ground beef, the cooled onion-garlic mixture, beaten eggs, 1/4 cup of the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, parsley, salt, and pepper. Gently mix with your hands until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in a tough meatloaf.
Transfer the meat mixture to your prepared loaf pan, gently patting it into an even layer, or shape it into a free-form loaf (about 9x5 inches) on the baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 3/4 cup ketchup, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar until smooth to create the glaze.
Bake the meatloaf for 40 minutes. Carefully remove it from the oven and spread half of the glaze evenly over the top. Return to the oven and bake for another 10 minutes.
Remove from the oven again, spread the remaining glaze over the top, and bake for a final 10-15 minutes, or until the glaze is caramelized and the meatloaf's internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) on a meat thermometer.
Let the meatloaf rest in the pan for at least 10 minutes before slicing. This crucial step allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring each slice is moist and holds together. Serve warm.

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Scrub the sweet potatoes thoroughly under running water and pat them completely dry with a paper towel.
Using a fork, pierce each sweet potato 5-6 times all over. This allows steam to escape during baking.
Place the potatoes on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, then use your hands to rub it evenly over the entire surface of each potato. Sprinkle with coarse sea salt and black pepper.
Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the skins are slightly crisp and the flesh is completely tender when pierced with a knife. The exact time will depend on the size of your potatoes.
Remove from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes. Slice open lengthwise, fluff the inside with a fork, and serve hot with your favorite toppings.
