 #### How to Prepare Meat Loaf Muffins

Meat Loaf Muffins are a delicious and convenient twist on traditional meatloaf. Here's a simple recipe to prepare them:

Ingredients:

- 1 pound ground beef (you can also use ground turkey or chicken)

- 1/2 cup bread crumbs (you can use your favorite dry bread crumbs or substitute with a gluten-free variety)

- 1/4 cup onion, finely chopped

- 1/4 cup milk

- 1 egg

- 2 tablespoons ketchup

- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, bread crumbs, chopped onion, milk, egg, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.

3. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin pan to prevent sticking.

4. Divide the meat mixture evenly among the muffin cups, pressing it down gently to fill each cup.

5. Optional: You can top each meatloaf muffin with a spoonful of ketchup or your favorite barbecue sauce for added flavor.

6. Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until the meatloaf muffins are cooked through and reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).

7. Once cooked, remove the muffin pan from the oven and let the meatloaf muffins rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help them hold together better.

That's it! You now have tasty Meat Loaf Muffins ready to enjoy. They can be served with a variety of side dishes such as mashed potatoes, corn, or green beans.

Feel free to experiment with different seasonings and toppings to suit your taste preferences. Enjoy your meal!
