BBQ glazed mini turkey meatloaves


These little meatloaves are a perennial favorite in our house.  I make a double batch in muffin tins so I can freeze the extras and reheat one at a time for a quick, protein packed snack.

1 Tbs. unsalted butter
1/2 C. each- diced onion, carrot, celery and mushrooms
kosher salt and pepper
2 Tbs. each- catsup and BBQ sauce

Saute diced vegetables and butter in a large nonstick pan on medium high heat for  5 minutes until veggies begin to soften and remove from heat.  Add catsup and BBQ sauce and season to taste with salt and pepper.  In a bowl, combine:

1 1/2 lbs. lean ground turkey
2 eggs
1/2 C. catsup
1/2 C. bbq sauce
1/2 C. bread crumbs

Preheat oven to 375.

Combine sautéed vegetables and remaining ingredients until thoroughly incorporated. 
Spray muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray and add ½ C, of the meatloaf mixture to each tin.  Add a drizzle of BBQ sauce to top of each mini meatloaf before baking, and bake for 20-25 minutes.
