Meatloaf Cupcakes
Ma! The meatloaf?! Anybody? Okay, that was a reference to Will Ferrell’s character in Wedding Crashers (you must watch it). Everyone loves meatloaf, but meatloaf “cupcakes” are next-level fun. These freeze great too!

Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 12-muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.

- Fill muffin cups ¾ full of meatloaf mixture.
- Bake for 35 minutes.
PRO TIP:
To turn these muffins into cupcakes, make mashed potatoes (or, if you’re me, warm up a pan of Bob Evans premade mashed potatoes), and put them in a plastic bag. Snip one corner to use it as a piping bag. Pretend those potatoes are icing and ice your “muffins.” If you’re feeling extra fancy, place one pea on top of each muffin. Your kids will get a big giggle. If you’d like to serve these with a dipping sauce, combine equal parts ketchup and brown sugar.
