Steps:
- In a bowl, mix the meat with onion, garlic, ground black pepper, taco seasoning mix, ketchup, Worcestershire and beaten eggs.

- MY NOTE: I partially cooked the bacon slices separately in a skillet and drained all the excess of fat, (or add the bacon cut in pieces into the meat, if you prefer).
- Bake the mini loaves in a 350ºF. pre-heated oven for about 30 to 40 minutes until they are well cooked from the center and bacon slices look crispy and attached around the loaves.
- Serve with steamed broccoli and mashed potatoes, if like.
- Note: Chris says: "It is sort of like a tiny self contained bacon burger".
- And thanks to the reviewers for their good suggestions to improve this recipe.

SPEEDY MINI MEAT LOAVES
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease the cups of a 12-cup muffin pan.
- In a large bowl, combine the beef, bread crumbs, eggs, milk, garlic, onion, salt, thyme, and pepper. Divide the meat mixture among the 12 muffin cups, pressing the meat firmly into the pan.
- Place the muffin pan on a baking sheet and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the meat is almost cooked through-the "loaves" will be firm when pressed lightly in the center but not set.
- While the meat loaves are baking, whisk together the ketchup, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. After baking for 20 to 25 minutes, remove the pan from the oven. Brush the tops of the loaves with the glaze, using it all up, and return the pan to the oven. Bake for 10 minutes more, or until the glaze has thickened and the meat is completely cooked through, 30 to 35 minutes total. Run an offset spatula or butter knife around the edges of the muffin cups and pop out the meat loaves. Serve hot.
