Meat Loaf Miniatures
Ingredients:
1 C ketchup
3 - 4 T. packed brown sugar
1 t. ground mustard
2 eggs, beaten
4 t. Worcestershire sauce
3 C Crispix cereal, crushed
3 t. onion powder
½ - 1 t. seasoned salt
½ t. garlic powder
½ t. pepper
3 lbs. lean ground beef
In a large bowl, combine ketchup, brown sugar and mustard. Remove ½ cup for topping; set aside. (**I make extra!!) Add eggs, Worcestershire sauce, cereal and seasonings to remaining ketchup mixture; mix well. Let stand for 5 minutes. Crumble beef over cereal mixture and mix well.
Press meat mixture into 18 muffin cups (about 1/3 C each). Bake at 375 degrees for 18-20 min. Drizzle with reserved ketchup mixture; bake 10 minutes longer or until meat is no longer pink and a meat thermometer reads 160 degrees. Serve desired number of meat loaves. Cool remaining loaves; freeze. Transfer to freezer bags; freeze for up to 3 months.
To use frozen meat loaves: Completely thaw in the refrigerator. Place loaves in a greased baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until heated through, or cover and microwave on high for 1 minute or until heated through.
Serving: 1 ½ dozen

Hint: A good amount of the fat from the meat remains behind in the bottom of the muffin pan. These go well with mashed potatoes. Perfect size for kids and leftovers.

Angie, these remind me of the idea of Sliders! I think it's great. You could get one out, throw it on a sandwich, and it would be thawed out my lunch. GREAT lunchbox tip!
