Ginger Meatloaf Muffins



















1/4 tsp ginger
1/4 c sugar
1/2 c ketchup
1.5 # beef
3/4 c bread crumbs
3/4 c milk
2 eggs
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 onion, chopped


Mix the ginger, sugar, and ketchup together in a small bowl.

Mix the beef (I actually used 1# beef & 1/2# of TVP (textured vegetable protein)), bread crumbs, milk, eggs, salt, pepper, & onion in a larger bowl. -Use your hands, you just can't mix a meatloaf well unless you get your hands dirty!

Fill all 12 muffin holes (is there a technical name for those?) half full of the meat mixture.
Evenly distribute the sauce on top of each loaf (use however much sauce you like).
Top each loaf with more meat.
(I used 2 muffin pans & just split the meat all up, topped half of the loafs, then plopped the other halves on top.)

Bake at 350* 30 min.

*You could just make 1 big loaf if you prefer.
