This meal is all about comfort food without the hassle. Mini meatloaves, green beans and mashed potatoes all cooked to perfection on one pan? Yes, please! The crunchy green beans are the ideal complement to our oh-so-creamy mashed potatoes, but you could substitute them with any green vegetable, like asparagus or broccoli to change up the flavor profile.

Coat a large piece of heavy-duty foil with cooking spray; place potato cubes on foil. Drizzle potatoes with water; wrap foil around potatoes, sealing tightly. Place foil packet in one corner of the sheet pan. Coat rest of sheet pan with cooking spray.
Place breadcrumbs, onion, 1½ tablespoons ketchup, ¼ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper, garlic, beef and egg in a large bowl; mix well to combine. Divide mixture into 2 equal portions. Shape each portion into a freeform loaf on sheet pan. Spread remaining 1½ tablespoons ketchup evenly over meatloaves. Bake meatloaves and potatoes for 15 minutes.
In a medium bowl, combine green beans and oil, tossing to coat. Remove pan from oven. Arrange green beans on pan around meat loaves and potatoes. Bake for another 15 minutes or until meatloaves register 165 F on a thermometer. Remove pan from oven.
Carefully open foil packet. Place potatoes in a bowl. Add milk, butter and remaining salt/pepper to taste. Mash with a potato masher or fork to desired consistency. Sprinkle remaining salt and pepper on green beans to taste.
Transfer meatloaves to plates. Serve with green beans and mashed potatoes.
