Oh no! It's 3:00 PM and what are you going to make for dinner? Nothing taken out of the freezer? I guess it's take out again, right? Wrong!
It happens to all of us. We get busy, and before we know it, it's nearing supper time. No need to fret, I have many meals that I can pull off quick!

It happens to all of us. We get busy, and before we know it, it's nearing supper time. No need to fret, I have many meals that I can pull off quick!
Today's treat:
30 Minute Mini Meatloaves
Meat loaves
- 1-2 lb. lean ground beef
- 1 onion minced or 2 tbsp dried onion
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1/4 cup ground flax seeds
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 tsp worcester sauce
Sauce
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 2 tsp chili powder
For the meat loaves:
Thaw your ground beef in lukewarm water . Rotate the meat every 30 minutes. Preheat your oven to 350. Once the ground beef is thawed, place all the ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix well.
Really get in there and get all the meat mixed in. Now for the trick: put you meat into muffin tins, filling them 3/4 full.
This cuts the baking time down giving you a quick delicious supper. Mix the remaining 3 ingredients and brush over the mini meatloaves.
Bake for 25 minutes, and serve next to veggies and your choice of sides. Our favourite is rice and steamed carrots!
Enjoy!
OMG!! These are soooo cute. I love meatloaf but I don't just use ground beef, I use ground pork and veal too. It makes a great tasting meatloaf!!
