Mini Meatloaves

 I have a recipe for instant pot meatloaf on here but this is a little bit different recipe and done in individual portions. Makes it easier for serving and it doesn't have to cook as long. 

This recipe is an adaptation of a recipe I saw on cookingmamas.com You can find the original recipe HERE I added in my twist to it and kept some of my original likes I have when doing meatloaf. My son who does not eat meatloaf actually ate this...all of his portion...wow.. That seriously is a win!

We paired it with some fried potatoes and corn. My dad said it was his favorite meal. Another win! 

Hope you enjoy it!

INGREDIENTS

Meatloaf: 

1 pound lean or extra-lean ground beef

1 pound ground turkey (you can use both ground beef if you want, but you can't tell it's in there!)

1 pkg Stove Top Stuffing, chicken flavor

1/2 pkg of onion soup mix

2 eggs

1/2 cup milk

1/3 cup ketchup

Sauce:

Approx 1 cup ketchup - I just squirt until it looks like enough.

2 Tbsps brown sugar

1 tsp mustard

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. (you could also use a muffin tin)

2. Put Stove Top Stuffing in a bowl and add milk to it. Mix to coat and set aside. 

3. Add ground beef and ground turkey to a large mixing bowl. Add onion soup mix, eggs, ketchup and mix well. 

4. Once the stuffing has sat a bit to soak up the milk add to the meat mixture and mix well. 

5. If you have an ice cream scoop that works well to divide out the meat otherwise I just divided the meat mixture into 8 oval mini meatloaves. 

6. Cook for 35 mins. 

7. Mix sauce ingredients together in a small bowl. Take meatloaves out when done for 35 mins. Add sauce on top and put back in the oven for another 10 mins. 

*internal temperature should be at 160 degrees
