Meatloaf Muffins

Ok, so I don't really know if these are easier that a typical meatball cause I've never made any other kind of meatball. But they're simple, so I will call them Easy Meatballs.

For these, you can use any kind of meat you want - turkey, chicken, beef or buffalo. I used 90/10 Organic Ground Beef for mine. It takes about 7 minutes of prep, cooks for 25 and then done! I serve mine with cauliflower mash (for me) and whole grain noodles for Chris and Tilman.

I really really need a new muffin pan!!

Meatloaf Muffins
What you need:
1LB lean ground meat of choice
1 egg
1/4C ground flaxseed, oatmeal, wheatbran or breadcrumbs
1/2 sweet onion, diced
1/2 diced green bell pepper
Optional: 1/2C chopped tomatoes
1tsp cumin
1tsp garlic powder
2tsp dried oregano
salt & pepper to taste

How to: Preheat oven to 350. Spray muffin tin with cooking spray. Mix everything together. Form balls with the meat mixture and put in the muffin tin. Bake 25-30 minutes, until meat is cooked through.

*If using chicken, try Greek Chicken Meatballs- 1LB ground chicken, 1/2C feta cheese, 1/4C chopped olives, 1/4C chopped tomato & 1/2 diced bell pepper. Still add in the egg, flaxseed (or other binder) & seasonings.
