SANDRA'S FANTASTICALLY EASY MEATLOAF MUFFINS with a PUNCH

Meatloaf muffins take almost half the time to bake 
versus the traditional loaf, and they
are so very tasty..
Servings (6 = 2 muffins ea.)
Prep: 10 mins. |
Bake: 35 mins.

INGREDIENTS

- 2 lbs. extra-lean beef/moose/venison/buffalo burger
- 3/4 cup italian seasoned breadcrumbs
- 1 pkg. lipton onion dry soup mix
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 3/4 cup water
- 1/3 cup chili sauce (for a recipe click here:  Homemade Chili Sauce)
- 1 teaspoon Italian herb seasoning blend
- 1 teaspoon cider vinegar
- Freshly ground pepper to taste

METHOD

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Place all ingredients in a large mixing bowl; mix with hands just until combined (try not to over-mix or you will end up with a tough meatloaf).

Spray the 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray, and place pan atop a foil-lined baking sheet (to catch potential splatters).

Fill each muffin cup with about 1/2 cup of the meat mixture, and gently press the top flat. Add an extra dollop of chili sauce to tops and spread it evenly with the back of a spoon.

Bake for 35 minutes, or just until meatloaf muffins slightly pull away from the sides of the muffin cups.

--[It's important to use extra-lean burger, as you don’t want your muffins puddling in grease.]--

Tips: While the muffins are baking you will have plenty of time to make mashed potatoes, including sauteing fresh garlic asparagus in olive oil.

These are handy to make into quick sandwiches the following day, or kids love em’ with mac & cheese, and they also transport well for lunch and outings, and freeze perfectly fine.


You can alternatively make a loaf, just bake it for 1 hour at the same 350 degree temp.
