Favorite Meat Loaf Cups
My family enjoys meat loaf, but sometimes I can't spare the hour or more it takes to bake in the traditional shape. A quick alternative is to divide the meat mixture into muffin cups for individual servings that are ready in less than 30 minutes. —Sue Gronholz, Beaver Dam, Wisconsin

OMG! This is the first recipe I tried. WE LOVED IT! I am looking forward to adding my own touch to the next batch.
I made this as directed and it was so easy and delicious! A keeper for sure!

I have only made meatloaf this way for years. I use breadcrumbs instead of cornflakes and add a little horseradish to the mix with shredded carrot and parsley. No ketchup or mustard in the beef mixture, but I make a mix of ketchup, mustard and brown sugar as the topping for the last 5 minutes of baking. So good and so much quicker than traditional meatloaf!
Such a great and easy recipe! Made as written, except used fresh minced onion instead of dried and panko crumbs since I didn't have any cornflakes. They came out moist and tender and family loved them. I did add a little brown sugar and mustard to the additional ketchup and brushed it on before baking. A keeper for busy weeknights....or anytime!
I used it as a filling for stuffed peppers. In this case, I'd lower the temperature and cook longer so the peppers would be soft as butter. Very good.
I always use Chili sauce instead of ketchup, it has more twang, also use breadcrumbs instead of cornflakes.
I will never make the traditional way again. This was so good! I used 1 lb. ground beef, 1/2 cup crushed saltines & adjusted the remaining ingredients since it's just my husband and I. I combined brown sugar, ketchup and a dab of mustard for a topping. YUM!
Made 2 1/2 batches and served a family of 8 with very few leftover. They went over great. Moist and delicious. The 4 yr. Old and 2 yr. old ate without a fuss.
I added grated carrot and minced fresh onion (omitted dried onion) . Very easy to make ahead and freeze for the week ahead as the family is often on different schedules.
