Has definite promise as a keeper here. A little bland for us -- even with adding some garlic salt instead of salt and some sage to the mix. Probably could add a touch of Worcestershire sauce too. Definitely needs the 1.25 lbs of meat was a little wet still with only 1.12 lbs. Used brown bread instead of white but loved how it came out on the bottoms! DH didn't even recognize it as slices of bread at first.
I only browsed the recipe before actually making it and was surprised at the directions. I was expecting these to be like mini meatloaves and instead they were similar to Polish Mistakes or Barbecue Beef Cups (also on this website). It would be less mess and easier to prepare to use refrigerated biscuits instead of the bread.

This was easy and fun to make. I used the leanest hamburger I could find and highly recommend doing the same. Yes it was a little bland but easy to perk up with garlic worchestershire sauce or BBQ sauce added to the mix before baking. I used both W. sauce and BBQ (made two batches) and both were great. Used sliced garlic sour dough bread. It was good but I think I'll try the biscuit thing next time. DO NOT use a honey wheat type bread. I ran out of the sour dough and had two muffins left so used what was on hand...uch! This is really fun to make with a kid. My 13 year old son helped and we had a great time. Thanks for sharing!
As i read thru the recipe I assumed the grease from the uncooked hamburger would be to much. I cooked the hamburger first then followed the recipe. It turned out great!! a keeper
I made this recipe using half the can of soup and added garlic savory (for lack of sage) and S&P. It tasted fabulous -- all 5 people loved it including 3- 6- and 11-year old kids. The 11-year-old helped me we had a great time and it was quite an accomplishment for him (and for me being a cook who lacks presentation skills!). FABULOUS recipe! Could the hamburger be pre-cooked to reduce the fat? Even with lean meat (7%) they were a bit on the greasy side.
This recipe is GREAT because it's very customizable. I added Worcestershire sauce lots of minced garlic bread crumbs chopped jalapeños and thyme to the meat mixture. I also sprinkled garlic powder over the slices of bread before putting them in the tin. I didn't find it bland at all. It came out of the muffin pan perfectly and intact. It's perfect with hot sauce. Next time I'll try adding bacon!
I tried this with tomato soup instead of mushroom and a bit of grated onion turned out yummy!
I haven't made this yet but I'm excited to with my own meatloaf recipe. Nice change sounds like I can take one to work for lunch with the leftovers. DON'T KNOW WHY PEOPLE COMPLAIN OF THE TASTE. Meatloaf is a recipe that we all alter to taste.So make your own and try it in the muffin pan I am next time!!!!
Quick easy and the family loved it.
