MEATLOAF MUFFINS WITH STOVE TOP STUFFING

This is very quick and easy to make. Kids love the "muffins". Also great for any of those anti-onion people in your home. You can make it with ground turkey to make it really healthy. I actually have a pan I drilled holes in to let the fat and grease drain out while cooking. We make these often. I got this recipe from a friend who was doing Weight Watchers at the time. Oh, and I half this recipe all the time. If I feel like loafs I just form those and bake a bit longer.
