When I was growing up, Sunday supper was always meatloaf, with enough left over for yummy sandwiches the next day. My family loves the traditional meatloaf but I have a recipe for muffin-size individual meatloaves they just love. For this recipe you will need.....
1 1/2 pounds lean ground ground beef ~~ 1 1/2 cups shredded zucchini ~~ 1 cup soft bread crumbs ~~ 1 egg, slightly beaten ~~ 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning ~~ 1/2 teaspoon salt (I use 1/4 teaspoon) ~~ 1/4 cup ketchup
While you are shredding and preparing your bread crumbs, heat oven to 400 degrees.....
To make meatloaves: In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except ketchup, mixing lightly but thoroughly. Place approximately 1/3 cup beef mixture into each of 12 medium muffin cups and press lightly. I actually use a measuring cup. Next......
Spread ketchup over top and bake for 20 minutes or until it is no longer pink and the juices runs clear........ I usually serve with mashed potatoes and a small salad.
Well here you go.......Enjoy......Hugs, Linda

Those look so good. My son has been asking for meatloaf lately.
I will have to try these. Thanks for sharing.
Wow looks awesome. I love the individual ones also. Much easier than slicing and it coming apart.
I could just eat with all you bloggers lol.
Linda,
If I lived near you, would you invite me over for dinner? I think it would be worth the move!! LOL
Have a great week!

Omigosh those look good! I love meatloaf but my boys never did while growing up so the only time I would have it would be if I was at a restaurant! I never even thought of making them in muffin cups...I could freeze them and just have single servings for myself! Awesome:-) xoxo
Hi Linda,
That sounds so good. I love meatloaf. I will have to try your individual meatloaves.
Thanks for the recipe,
Rosemary
I really like your recipe, Linda. I will have to try it, but I will cut it down for two people. A good way to get veggies in our diet. Thank you!
What a great way to use zucchini! I am going to give this a try. Thanks so much for sharing your Sunday supper with us all. Thanks for the recipe.
God bless.
Linda, that sounds yummy! I have made a similar dish and stuffed it in red peppers instead of a muffin tin...

What a fabulous idea! Meatloaf is one of my absolute favorite dishes and I love making a sandwhich the next day from the leftovers...oh I am now having a meatloaf craving!

What a wonderful idea...I love how you baked the meatloaf in the muffin pans...what a great presentation it makes on the plate. I will have to give that idea a try Linda.
I hope my adorable niece Janna...the one that loves to cook and has a blog...will stop by and check this out.
Yummers! I have never thought to put zucchini in my meatloaf. That looks really good!

This is such a great idea. I make meatloaf fairly often and this would have never occured to do it this way.
Thanks for the recipe and the idea.

That sounds great and even though I have made meatloaf a lot, (Eric's favorite), I never put it in muffin pans. Neat idea.

Oh wow, I'd love to try that! I've never heard of zucchini in meatloaf before but I love zucchini so, why not?
Thanks for the recipe!

Oh, I do love a good meatloaf and my mama fixed the best in Texas. I use her recipe and still love it so much. I, too, sometimes make the little ones and I also love it in a loaf so I can slice it really thin the next day and FRY it....umummmmmmmm good.
I will give your recipe a try, too..it sounds delicious.
Over at The PIONEER WOMAN COOKS is the most delicious sounding potatoes that would be fabulous with meatloaf. I am going to fix them for dinner tomorrow night! Go ck it out....she has such good recipes. The peppers stuffed with creme cheese and bacon wrapped are to die for...
hugs, bj
I can't wait to try this recipe. I have some zucchini in the fridge. I'll let you know how it turns out! Thanks!
