Granny's Meat Loaf Cake

2 to 2-1/2 pounds lean ground beef
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 cup Italian-flavored bread crumbs
1-1/2 cups ketchup, divided
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
4 cups warm mashed potatoes
8 cherry tomatoes, halved


Preheat the oven to 375°F. Coat a 10-inch Bundt or tube pan with nonstick cooking spray.

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, onion, bread crumbs, 1 cup ketchup, the eggs, salt and pepper; mix well. Place in the prepared pan. Spread the remaining 1/2 cup ketchup over the top of the meat. Bake for 1 hour to 1-1/4 hours, or until the juices run clear; drain off any liquid. Allow to sit for 5 minutes, then remove to a serving platter.

"Frost" the meat with the mashed potatoes and garnish the bottom edge with the cherry tomato halves.
