  3. Put the breadcrumbs, milk, eggs and tomato paste into the Cuisinart® mixing bowl. Insert flat mixing paddle. Mix on Speed 1 for 30 seconds. Add cooled mushroom/onion mix- ture, mix until combined, 15 to 20 seconds. Add ground meat, parsley, salt and pepper. Mix on Speed 2 until well combined, about 45 seconds.
  4. Transfer mixture to prepared loaf pan, round the top slightly. Bake in preheated oven for about 1 hour and 15 minutes; internal temperature should be 160°F when tested with an instant-read thermometer. Let meatloaf rest 10 minutes before removing from pan or slicing.
