WHAT IS A TURKEY MEATLOAF MUFFIN?

Instead of being shaped into a large loaf, the meatloaf mixture is portioned out into a 12-cup muffin tin and baked until fully cooked. The result is perfectly portioned, individual meatloaf “muffins” that are savory, flavorful, and easy to enjoy. The recipe typically uses ground turkey as the base, along with a mix of herbs, bread crumbs, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and other seasonings to add flavor and texture to the dish.
