Individual Meat Loaves

Time goes by quickly...it is time for another Ina Garten recipe. Barefoot Bloggers were to prepare Individual Meat Loaves for today. Tonya of What's on My Plate selected the recipe for us. Thank you Tonya!

I had not prepared meatloaf in many years. I could never find a recipe that ever motivated me! My mom always made meatloaf...with Lipton Onion Soup mix. The onion flavor in that mixture was way too strong for me. So, you know that I raised an eyebrow when I saw that I needed three cups of chopped onions for this recipe. That was a bit much for me, however, I found one very large onion and it came to three cups.

As it turned out, the flavor wasn't too strong...there was just a lot of onion! I think when I prepare this again, I will add more spices. I thought the flavor was a little flat...even with all of that onion!!

You can get the recipe here at Food Network. This was easy to prepare and it made a few meals! There really is nothing better than a meatloaf sandwich, is there?

After a few steps....dinner!

Step 1 Saute the onions and spices.

Step 2: Add the tomato paste, worchestershire and other ingredients.

Step 3: Mix onion mixture and hamburger meat.

Step 4: Shape into individual meatloaves and bake.


Serve with potatoes and asparagus! Yum!

  1. I usually cut the onion portion in "half" for a recipe I use....I like it, but not too much.
    Your little meatloafs look great.

  3. I've never been a big fan of meatloaf until I added mushrooms to the mix. I think they really add a lot of flavor and texture and never make meatloaf without them now! I like the idea of individual servings :)

  5. I cooked my onions down quite a bit, so it ended up being much less than I thought, but I don't think I used the whole amount either. Yours look good!

  9. Your minis are the perfect little size. Mine were big enough to feed to people, and I only used 2# of ground sirloin.

    Asparagus looks great, too!
