MINI MEATLOAVES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, combine the egg, milk, cheese, oats and salt. Add the ground beef, mixing well, and form this mixture into eight miniature meatloaves. Place these in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
• In a separate small bowl, combine the ketchup, brown sugar and mustard. Stir thoroughly and spread over each meatloaf.
• Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 45 minutes.

TURKEY MINI-MEATLOAVES WITH ROASTED ROOT VEGGIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Arrange oven racks to accommodate two dishes being cooked simultaneously.
• Grind the bread in a food processor until fine crumbs form. Transfer to a large bowl, and pour milk over crumbs.
• Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large skillet, preferably nonstick, over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden, about 5 minutes. Add spinach, and stir until just wilted, about 30 seconds. Transfer to bowl with soaked crumbs. Add the turkey, cheese, egg, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Combine the mixture with your hands until well mixed; it will be quite wet.
• Pack 1 cup of the mixture into a 1-cup dry measuring cup. Invert the cup onto a rimmed baking sheet, gently shaking the cup to release the mixture. Gently pat the mound to smooth its shape. Repeat three times with remaining mixture. Bake mini meatloaves until cooked through and golden, about 40 minutes.
• While the meatloaves are cooking, make the glaze: In a small bowl combine the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and hot sauce. Brush over meatloaves.
• To make the roasted root vegetables: On a baking sheet, toss all the vegetables in the olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Add to the oven along with the meatloaves and roast for 30 to 35 minutes, stirring midway through baking. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh herbs.

COOKING LIGHT'S TURKEY MINI MEATLOAVES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Heat a small skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add onion to pan; saute 5 minutes or until slightly browned. Remove from heat; cool slightly.
• Combine onion, breadcrumbs, and next 7 ingredients (through egg white) in a large bowl.
• Stir in 2 tablespoons of the ketchup.
• Spoon about 1/2 cup of the meat mixture into each of 3 muffin cups coated with cooking spray; place muffin tin on a baking sheet. (This is necessary to keep the oven clean, as the juices of the meatloaves tend to bubble up out of the muffin cups and can drip on the floor of the oven.).
• Combine remaining 1 tablespoon ketchup with hot pepper sauce in a small bowl. Brush ketchup mixture over meat loaf tops.
• Bake at 350 for 30 minutes or until a thermometer registers 165 degrees.
