Katie Dishes - Two Thumbs Up
I love this recipe. My version differs from the original recipe a bit to add some more of the seasonings in my mom's classic Meatloaf recipe. But I love all the added veggies in this! And the stuffing in place of your typical breadcrumbs adds some additional flavor, and makes it a little less dense.
I also love the fact that it is cooked in muffin tins. It is super creative and cute: built in portion control! Obvioulsy, if you'd prefer, it could be cooked in a normal loaf pan. If doing that, just increase the cooking time to an hour to accomodate.
