MINI HAM LOAVES



Mini Ham Loaves image

This is a family favorite. My aunt used to make them every Easter. The recipe comes from an old church cookbook. Whenever I order the meat from the meat market, I order ground ham and pork from a local meat market premixed. I order triple the meat required, packaged into three packages, give one to my mother, use one, and freeze one to use later. Serve these with horseradish.

Tips and Conclusion

Making these ham and cheese mini meat loaves is a breeze, but here are a few tips to ensure they turn out perfectly: - Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. - Don't overmix the meat mixture; this will result in tough meat loaves. - Handle the meat mixture gently to prevent it from becoming tough. - Make sure the meat loaves are cooked through before serving. This can be checked by inserting a meat thermometer into the center of a meatloaf; the internal temperature should reach 160°F (71°C). - Let the meat loaves rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat loaves, resulting in a more flavorful dish. Ham and cheese mini meat loaves are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. - They're also easy to make ahead of time, making them a great option for busy families or those who like to meal prep. - Serve them with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad. - Leftover meat loaves can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
