Found the recipe on Cooking Light, made even lighter by using only one lb of extra lean ground beef and egg whites only.

Cooking spray
1 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped carrot
1 tsp oregano
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup ketchup, divided
1 lb extra lean ground beef (original recipe calls for 1 and 1/2 lb)
1 cup finely crushed fat free saltine crackers (about 20)
2 tbsp prepared mustard
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
6 tbsp egg whites only (original recipe calls for 2 large eggs)

Preheat oven to 350.

Heat a nonstick skillet with a little bit of cooking spray over med-high heat. Add chopped onion, carrot, dried oregano, and minced garlic. Saute 2 minutes. Cool.

Combine onion mixture, 1/2 cup ketchup, and the remaining ingredients in a large bowl.

Spoon the meat mixture into 12 muffin cups coated with cooking spray. Top each with 2 tsp ketchup. Bake at 350 for 25 minutes or until a thermometer registers 160. Let stand 5 minutes.

Each serving is 2 muffins. Original recipe was 276 calories, 8.6g fat, 28.7g protein
My version is 176 calories, 3g fat, 10g protein

Please remember to use a tiny square of aluminum foil to make cleanup easier and keep the muffins together a little more. I usually do, but this time I forgot. :/
