{turkey + veggie meatloaf minis}

Looking for a new spin on the classic meatloaf?  Maybe not?  Ha!  Everyone has their go-to meatloaf recipe, I know, I get it.  The one that your Mom made when you were a kid…me too!

This is a healthier version, as I like to call it.  We’ve had these meatloaf minis more times that I can count.  I could literally make them blindfolded.

It’s easy.  It’s good.  Oh and it’s under 130 calories each!

This recipe is also a great, slightly sneaky way to add veggies too.

Great as leftovers for lunches + busy week night dinner too.  I even threw them over my salad last week for lunch.  Weird, huh?  Try it!

Here’s what you do:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a large bowl, mix all ingredients.  I use my hands…works best.

Line muffin pan with baking cups.  Spray with nonstick spray.  Evenly distribute turkey + veggie mixture among the muffin cups.

Top with ketchup + mustard topping.

Bake for 40 minutes.

Try it out and let me know what you think!  Bay says it tastes vegatabley, but she gobbles it up every time.  That’s why it’s a keeper!!
