Mini-Meatloaves

This is a great meatloaf recipe I've recently discovered - it not only enforces great portion control, but it tastes much better than most other meatloaf recipes I've made.
  • 1.5 lbs ground lean beef
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 1 small green pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 1/4 cup + 6 TB ketchup
  • 1 TB yellow mustard
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 2 TB cornmeal
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper

Preheat the oven to 350. Spray a medium baking sheet with nonstick spray.

Combine the beef, onion, bell pepper, 1/4 c of the ketchup, the mustard, egg, cornmeal, garlic, oregano, salt and ground pepper, mixing until blended.

Form into 6 oval loaves on the baking sheet. Spread one TB of ketchup on each loaf. Bake until a thermometer inserted into the center of each loaf reads 160 degrees, about 40-45 min. Let stand 5 min before serving.

Yield: 6 servings, 4 points each (214 cal, 7g fat, 2g fiber)
