Mini Turkey Meatloaves

My husband loves a good meatloaf. I personally find all that meat gross. So in return, I choose a healthier meat and a way of presenting it so it does not overwhelm myself. There is just something about seeing a slab of ground beef in my bread pan that turns me off of wanting to eat it.

In response to his enjoyment of meatloaf, I decided to make mini meatloaves in my muffin tins instead. As a result, my little guy will also eat the smaller amount meat over the loaf pan option.

I hope you find these as enjoyable as I do

Mini Turkey Meatloaves

Ingredients:

500g lean ground turkey
1 bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, finely diced
1 cup mushrooms, diced
1 zucchini, sliced and diced
1 egg white
1/4 cup gluten free Breton Herb and Garlic Crackers, crushed to almost a powder
1 tbsp gluten free Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp italian seasoning
1/2 tsp thyme
1/8 sea salt and black pepper

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. Lightly oil a 12 cup muffin pan
3. Mix all ingredients thoroughly and divide among the 12 muffin cups
4. Bake for 40 minutes, until browned and cooked through

Now, I also have to appease the masses and had to cover some with .... ketchup. I made 6 with and 6 without.


After a filling meal, I will make this again in a heart beat. Everyone liked it, even my mushroom hating oldest child. You will notice that I will find many ways to hide vegetables in my children's food.
