Works for Me - Mini Meatloaves (for meatloaf lovers)
I have to honestly say that I love meatloaf. I grew up with it, my mom makes awesome meatloaf, and for me it's one of those foods that just warms the soul. I receive Kraft foods magazine in the mail every so often, and in the last issue they had a recipe for Marvelous Mini Meatloaves and I thought what a cute idea. I decided to try it since I am on Weight Watchers and a big part of it is portion control and it worked out AWESOME!!!
Instead of making one huge meatloaf sticking on a pan and cooking it for over an hour and up to an hour and a half, you make smaller patties and put them in a muffin or cupcake pan. You cook it in those and they are perfect portion sizes. Not only that but it cooks in a lot less time. I cant say enough how much I love that idea. This is what inspired my heart shaped meatloaf idea for Valentines Dinner. I have heart shaped cake pans which i am going to make my meatloaves, spread a little ketchup on top and Voila! My Ode to Valentine's Day!

I get that magazine too, but somehow I missed that article! Thanks for sharing. Great idea to make them heart-shaped tonight too!
They sound great. I haven't ever made meatloaf...I've always been afraid of it, LOL. I might have to try it!
Sounds wonderful !

Love meatloaf but it is hard to stop eating! Portion control would be a good thing. I will try this.
Cute idea. And I'm on WW too. Also, they would be the perfect size for my toddler too!
