Mini Meat Loaf Muffins
Mini Meatloaf Muffins tick off a lot of boxes. They are a good protein source, they appeal to all members of the family, portion control is built in, they taste just as good the next day, they pack well, they make great sandwiches, and you can customize them so that some family members who don’t like onions can have without, some can have with, and so on. A winner.

We made these 3 times. First time plain as written, second time as Taco Muffins like written in comments, and third time with Teriyaki Sauce and pineapple tidbits. The tacos were the most popular.
Make it often. Nothing not to like. Except maybe a heap of gravy and buttered potatoes. That would be nice if I wasn’t too fat!
