what for dinner 10/24/10: Mini Meatloaves, Mashed Potatoes & Asparagus

Oh look how cute...tonight's Feingold friendly meal is mini meatloaves, mashed potatoes and fresh asparagus.

Mini Meatloaves

makes about 20 muffin size meatloaves

Ingredients:

1 1/4 lb lean ground beef

1 1/4 lb ground venison (or you can do all ground beef if you like)

2 eggs

1/2 cup dried bread crumbs (make sure they are approved)

8 oz tomato sauce (we are testing in stage 2 foods)

1 cup shredded cheese

Directions:

1. Heat oven to 350
2. Mix all ingredients (except cheese but you can if you want) until well combined
3. Spray a muffin tin or 2 with cooking spray
4. With a ice cream scoop spoon into muffin cups
5. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes
6. Add cheese to top of muffins (if you did not mix it in already) and bake another 5 minutes or until cheese is melted

Verdict: well with my family of 5 there was only 5 left over, my oldest son had 4 of them.  I like these because they are portion controlled and easy to pack in lunches.  I was hoping for a meatloaf sandwich tomorrow but I am out of luck...I swear I have to make a meatloaf just for the sandwiches LOL
