Bump ....Saving for later, these look great!0

I didn't have crackers when I was making meatloaf once and substituted Stove Top Stuffing from the canister...it was delicious 'cause the stuffing has seasonings in it too! Now I never make it without a little stuffing!0

I made these last night. Just finished eating some leftovers for lunch. YUM.
I used just 1 pound of 96% lean ground beef and put the same amount of onions & carrots but cut back on the crackers ( I used 15) and ketchup. I still got 12 good sized "muffins" out of it and each one had about 20 fewer calories because of that. My 30 year old BF apparently has the mentality of a 7 year old & thinks the term "meat muffin" is the most hilarious thing in the world. I can't count the number of times I've heard "meat muffin" in the last 24 hours.
Paired these with buttermilk mashed potatoes and green peas and had another huge fantastic dinner for under 500 calories. We ate around 7pm and I went to bed around midnight and I was never hungry at all.
Thank you for this recipe! This one's a keeper.0 -
Bump to make for dinner tonight! :drinker:0

Diner Meat Loaf 'Muffins'
Ingredients
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped carrot
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup ketchup, divided
1 1/2 pounds ground beef, extra lean (raw)
1 cup finely crushed fat-free saltine crackers (about 20)
2 tablespoons prepared mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 large eggs
Cooking spray
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350°.
Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chopped onion, chopped carrot, dried oregano, and minced garlic; sauté 2 minutes. Cool.
Combine onion mixture, 1/2 cup ketchup, and the remaining ingredients except cooking spray in a large bowl.
1 teaspoon olive oil <I omitted>
1 cup finely chopped onion <I omitted>
1/2 cup finely chopped carrot <I omitted>
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup ketchup, divided
1 1/2 pounds ground beef, extra lean (raw) <I used 2#>
1 cup finely crushed fat-free saltine crackers (about 20) <I used 1 c. quick oats>
2 tablespoons prepared mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper <I also added some garlic & onion powder>
2 large eggs <I omitted>
Cooking spray
Here's what I did when I made it tonight. I put the changes in <>
Anyway... they turned out soooo good! ALL of my kids loved them, and that's saying something! It's hard to find something that all 3 of them like. In fact, they asked if I'd make them again tomorrow night! :laugh: I made homemade mashed potatoes w/ them and peas. They loved the little individual sized meatloaves instead of a slice too. It's all in the presentation, I guess! :ohwell:
Jess
this is what i am going to do when i make mine!
and also trying my italian style meat load recipe like this!

I just made them last night and they were a huge hit again!! Good thing I made enough for leftovers tonight. Good idea to use pizza sauce too!!
Here is what I did last night and my cal counts.
1 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped carrot <I used matchstick carrots, then diced>
1 teaspoon dried oregano <and I also added Italian seasoning and basil>
2 T. minced garlic
15 oz reduced sodium tomato sauce, plus organic ketchup for topping
2 pounds ground beef, extra lean (raw)
1 cup old fashioned oatmeal
2 tablespoons prepared mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce <and I also added 1 tsp. liquid smoke seasoning>
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper <I also added some garlic & onion powder>
Mix all together (I didn't sautee the onions or garlic in olive oil). Put in muffin cups. I baked at 400* for 30 minutes because my kids like them a little crunchier.
Makes 18 muffins, 2 muffins per serving.

Just made this for dinner with some roasted potatoes and steamed broccoli...So yummy! I think I'm going to use the muffin pan for all of my other meatloaf recipes, too.0

I have to try these. Thank you for sharing.0

Wow, this recipe keeps on going!! :laugh:
I think this is a nice "comfort" kind of recipe this time of year!
I would think almost any meatloaf recipe could be made into these "muffins"...they are great for portion control AND they are cute and interesting for children!0 -
