Healthy Mini Meatloaf

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef

1 small zucchini, finely grated (about ¾ cup grated)

½ cup finely chopped onion

1 egg

½ cup Panko breadcrumbs

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon pepper

6 Tablespoons ketchup

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a standard 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray and set aside.

2. Place meat in a large bowl. Add zucchini, onion, egg, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons of the ketchup. Use your hands to gently combine. Do not over-mix because the meat will become dry and tough.

3. Press the ingredients into the prepared muffin cups. An ice cream scoop can be used to portion the meat into each cup. Top each mini meatloaf with a dollop of the remaining ketchup.

4. Place the muffin pan on a foil-lined baking sheet (to catch any drips).

5. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until meatloaves are cooked through and a thermometer registers 160 degrees F.
