Mini Italian Meatloaves




Ingredients


1 1/2 lbs ground beef (90% is best but not necessary)

1/2 C. Italian style dry bread crumbs

1/2 C. pepperoni-flavored pizza sauce (from 14oz jar) (you can use regular sauce if need be)

1/4 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. pepper

2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

1 egg

1/4 C. shredded Italian style six cheese blend or mozzarella cheese (1oz)

Additional pizza sauce, heated, if desired



Directions

1) Heat oven to 350 degrees. In large bowl, mix all ingredients except cheese and additional pizza sauce. Press beef mixture into 12 regular size muffin cups (cups will be very full). Place muffin pan on cookie sheet in oven to catch any spillover.

2) Bake about 30 minutes or until loaves are no longer pink in center and meat thermometer inserted in center of loaves in middle of muffin pan reads 160 degrees.

3) Sprinkle 1 tsp. cheese over each loaf. Bake 1 to 2 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Immediately remove from cups. Serve with pizza sauce.
