Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large mixing bowl combine the beef, onion, bread crumbs, salt, paprika, celery salt, black pepper, eggs, and milk. Mix until combined well.
Cut cheese into ½" cubes and fold in to the meat mixture.
Grease a 9" x 5" x 3" loaf pan with vegetable cooking spray.
Place meat mixture into pan and spread until even. Take a fork and poke it a few times to make sure there are no air holes.
