Healthy Meatloaf

Miss Daisy is a local celebrity in Tennessee... famous for her traditional Southern recipes, she has also put out a cookbook with healthy versions of the classic dishes... we often make her recipe in mini-muffin tins... it makes for quicker cooking, easy serving, and leftover loaves can be stored easily for transporting to work for lunch the next day.

Miss Daisy’s Healthy Meatloaf

1 pound lean ground beef

1 cup uncooked oats

½ cup minced onion

½ cup minced green bell pepper

2 egg whites, slightly beaten

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon ground black pepper

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

¾ cup tomato sauce, divided

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large bowl, combine beef, oats, onion, bell pepper, egg whites, salt, pepper, Worcestershire, and ½ cup tomato sauce. Shape into large loaf or 2 mini loaves* and place in loaf pans. Spread remaining ¼ cup tomato sauce over loaves. Bake 40-45 minutes. * Mini meatloaves: heat oven to 375 degrees, press meat into 12 muffin cups or 24 mini muffin cups and cook 30 minutes for muffin cups and 15 minutes mini muffin cups.
