Loaded Mini Meatloaves

I did me and cooked my little heart out earlier than I left. I stocked that fridge with food that he could easily throw together right into a short meal for himself and the little lady. As i was cooking, I started to make a grain-loose meatloaf.  A mild bulb went off in my head when I spied the freshly washed muffin tin striking out on the drying rack. I remembered seeing a recipe many moons in the past on Pinterest for meatloaves in a muffin tin. I had in no way gotten around to making it and (definitely) maximum meatloaf recipes are simply no longer my factor for the reason that they're loaded with ketchup, breadcrumbs, and/or even sugar (critically, why the hell do we positioned sugar in everything together with meatloaf!? For real people, stroll far from the sugar bowl. Your body and mind will thanks when they experience much less bloated and foggy).  if i'm going to cook, i am going to have leftovers! It takes very little effort to make a large batch of of something and then you get to revel in the end result of your hard work for several bonus meals. cook as soon as, eat twice (or greater)! So this recipe makes a quite significant batch (about 12 mini meatloaves). Freeze the leftovers for future food in a hurry or make it while you need to feed a further massive crowd.
