Meatmuffins
The short version: a meatmuffin is a mini-meatloaf
made in muffin cups rather than a full sized loaf pan.
My kids don't like meatloaf, but my husband and I do,
so this is a great way to keep everyone happy!
Plus, as an added bonus, I realized that I could slip
in some frozen homemade tomato soup I made last
year that we didn't like in them, so it wouldn't go to
waste. Yay! I was wondering what I was going to do
with that!
There are other advantages to meatmuffins, even if
you don't have old tomato soup lurking in your freezer
looking for a use. These things take a lot less time to
cook, so the are great if you need to get dinner on the
table more quickly or don't want the oven on very long
to keep it from heating up the house. Not only that,
but they are great for portion control if you are on a diet,
or just are trying to limit your meat consumption.
The limited meat consumption was a huge part of why I
decided to make these last night. I've been wanting
meatloaf, but we are almost out of ground venison,
so I need to be using it sparingly. If I made a regular
meatloaf, I would have used at least a whole pound
and we probably would have eaten it all. I made a half
batch of this recipe last night (turned the other half
into freezer meatballs), and we ate a total of 10 of them,
so there are still a couple in the freezer for next time
I want meatloaf or to send with my husband for part of
a lunch at work.
Meatmuffins
1 1/2 lbs ground meat
2/3 cup dry oats
1/2 cup onion, diced
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
2 eggs
2/3 cup condensed tomato soup
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. If using a lower fat
meat such as venison, grease the bottom of 24
muffin cups. Combine all ingredients in a large
bowl. You may need to use your hands to thoroughly
mix (be sure to take of any rings and wash your
hands really well and/or wear gloves. Yuck!).
Fill muffin cups approximately 3/4 of the way full.
Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until lightly brown on
the outside and no longer pink in the middle.
Top with ketchup if desired.
Unused meatmuffins may be frozen in a freezer
safe container or bag. To reheat, thaw completely
then bake at 350 degrees for 10-20 minutes until
heated through.
