Cheesy Turkey Meatloaf Muffins

Cheesy Turkey Meatloaf Muffins are wonderfully moist and flavorful. Their mini size makes them perfect when you are tracking calories.

Cheesy Turkey Meatloaf Muffins

The 2 things that can go really wrong with meatloaf are it can turn out dry and bland. These Cheesy Turkey Meatloaf Muffins are neither. They have plenty of flavor from onion, garlic, cheese, Worcestershire sauce, poultry seasoning, and Italian seasoning. I especially like the flavor poultry seasoning adds.

Ketchup and milk add plenty of moisture.

The other great thing about meatloaf muffins is they cook up in a fraction of the time that meatloaf does. You can even make the meatloaf mixture a day in advance and then have a super quick and easy dinner.

Making meatloaf in muffin tins is a great way to ensure you get the proper portion size.

Tips for making Cheesy Turkey Meatloaf Muffins

  • You can use either regular ground turkey or ground turkey breast which is lower in fat.
  • To avoid tough meatloaf, do not overmix.
  • You can try different cheeses. Parmesan, mozzarella and cheddar cheese all work well.
  • These Cheesy Turkey Meatloaf Muffins are fairly low carb already. To make them truly low carb, use crushed Pork Rinds isntead of Panko crumbs.
