These personal size mini grass-fed beef & quinoa meatloaves are healthy and delicious. Kids will love getting their own mini serving, too. Making these meatloaves in small, individual portion sizes also makes them easy to freeze for a quick grab-and-go protein snack. Just wrap them individually in plastic wrap and place them into an air-tight freezer container. Mini Grassfed Beef & Quinoa Meatloaves make a great meal for busy weeknights when you have no time to cook! Enjoy.
Mini Grassfed Beef & Quinoa Meatloaves
Ingredients:
3lbs of ground lean grass-fed beef
1 ½ cups cooked quinoa
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
2 eggs
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon sea salt
2 teaspoon Italian seasoning (I use McCormick's)
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh sweet basil
dash of paprika for topping
Directions:
Grease 24 muffin tins with olive oil spray and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl, using your hands. Don't be afraid to get messy! You want everything to be well mixed. Fill muffin tins with meat mixture and brush the tops with a little olive oil. Sprinkle with paprika, then bake for 25-30 minutes or until tops are lightly browned.
