For the Creamed Spinach:
-
In a medium pot over medium-high heat, add spinach, garlic, and cream cheese. -
Stir and cook until the water from the spinach has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Stir in yogurt and cook until warm, about 1 more minute.
For the Mini Meatloaves:
-
Preheat oven to 400° F. -
In a large bowl, add ground turkey breast, corn, carrots or winter squash, egg, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, parsley or Italian spice blend and oats or multigrain cereal and and stir together. -
Coat a 12-cup nonstick muffin pan with cooking spray (or use two 6-cup muffin pans). Divide meat evenly between each cup. Cook mini meatloaves in the oven for 10 minutes. -
In a small bowl, combine ketchup, dry mustard, water, vinegar and honey. Remove meatloaves from oven and use a spoon to top each mini meatloaf with glaze. Return to oven and cook for 10 more minutes. -
Run a knife around the edge of each muffin cup to loosen the meatloaves.
Tip: Cooking Tips: If using frozen vegetables in the meatloaf, make sure they are thoroughly thawed and drained and rinsed of their water. If not, all the water makes the meatloaf soggy.
Tips: Using a muffin tin helps with portion control and speeds up the cooking time. Leftover meatloaf makes great sandwiches for lunch the next day.
