Mini Turkey Meatloaves are a quick, easy, and healthy dinner! These are ready in less than 30 minutes and are full of flavor. Your entire family is going to love this easy dinner!
Is everyone loving summer like I am? I’m so happy that it’s hot outside that I could cry. I’m moving somewhere that has summer weather all year round. Who’s with me?!
I’m having to drag my children home from the pool hours after dinnertime every day and it just makes me so happy that they’re so happy outside and in the water.
It’s making cooking dinner a little more difficult though, so today I’ve got a really easy 30 minute dinner idea that your kids won’t even know are good for them. My 7 year old took his first bite and shouted “THESE ARE DELICIOUS!”
These Mini Turkey Meatloaves are so easy and are perfect when you don’t feel like cooking a whole meatloaf for an hour or more!
Ingredients
- Ground turkey – you could use ground chicken if you prefer.
- Onion
- Panko breadcrumbs – I like to use panko because I feel like regular breadcrumbs creates a tighter, denser meatloaf. I prefer a lighter texture in my meatloaf.
- Italian seasoning – if you don’t have it, use any mixture of basil, oregano, rosemary, thyme, and marjoram.
- Worcestershire sauce – adds a deep flavor to the meatloaf.
- Salt and pepper
- Egg
- Ketchup – this is for the glaze on top.
- Brown sugar – this adds a slight sweetness to the glaze on top.
- Dijon mustard – this adds a tang to the glaze.
How To Make Mini Turkey Meatloaves
- Prepare. Spray 9 cups of a muffin tin with oil and set aside.
- Combine. Combine ground turkey, onion, panko breadcrumbs, Italian seasoning, worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, and egg.
- Transfer. Use a ⅓ cup measure to scoop the meat mixture out and put in the prepared muffin tin. Repeat with all of the meat mixture.
- Make glaze. Stir together ketchup, brown sugar, and dijon mustard.
- Glaze. Brush or spoon on top of each meatloaf muffin.
- Bake. Bake at 375F for 20 – 25 minutes, or until a meat thermometer reads 165F.
How Long Are They Good For?
Mini turkey meatloaves will be fine for up to 3 days. Make sure to store them in an airtight container and store them in the fridge.
The best way to reheat them is in the microwave.
Can You Freeze Them?
You can freeze these mini meatloaves for up to 3 months. I would wrap them individually in plastic wrap and then place them in a freezer ziploc bag.
When you are ready to serve them, let them defrost overnight and then reheat in the microwave or oven.
