Low Fat Mini Meatloaves

With DH being a diabetic, I am always looking for ways to add veggies into the diet. I found a recipe on the web and did some adjusting to suit our taste. The recipe calls for ground turkey; however, extra-lean ground beef also works well. Top with Creole Sauce Creole Sauce for a fabulous main course! These can be frozen, defrosted in the refrigerator and warmed as needed making this a great recipe for small families or when preparing a meal for one.

The flavor is excellent. I used this recipe for the meatloaf muffins and added the options on this recipe: http://www.recipezaar.com/Marvellous-Mini-Meatloaves-With-Options-OAMC-204682 The combination was great! The muffin tin is perfect portioning too.

    I don't know why I've waited to try making meatloaf muffins until now. These were just delicious and the addition of the veggies helped keep the meat moist depite the lack of fat. For those who are wonder about those veggies, they look a little odd in the raw loaf but cook right in and blend nicely. My one change was that I didn't have any bread so I used 3 tablespoons of oatmeal (which also makes the recipe WW Core). Also because I like stronger flavors I mixed a little salsa and a half teaspoon of liquid smoke into the ketchup used to ice/glaze the muffins. Thanks Paula.

    Excellent taste and easy to make with a food processor. I used oatmeal also to make a WW Core friendly recipe. This recipe is much better than the average meatloaf.
