A downsized version of the ever popular American meatloaf, this recipe has been a huge hit with my family! Mini meatloaves are fun and easy to please due to the amount of alterations you can make.

  • Sounds great, don't do meatloaf but once in about 10 years, but will keep this in mind for next time. Thanks for the tip about too much water, maybe a typo? I think if we start out adding a little bit of water at a time and or just moistening the Stove Top first, just enough to make it the correct consistency? Thanks for the recipe and the heads up on the too much water.

  • First, the directions leave a lot to be desired. It doesn't specify how much of the seasoning to the meat mix and what should be left over and used for the indentations and topping! I had to guess! Also the liquid in each of the ingredients was wayyyyy toooo much.
    ; ie sauces. I had to bake mine an additional 30 mins. to get them to set. I suggest that all the seasoning be added up front and save back some of the cheese for topping later. Tasted OK, but way too soggy!
