Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Generously coat 18 standard muffin cups (from two 12-cup muffin pans) with cooking spray.
- Put the oats in a small bowl and slowly pour the milk over them. Stir to make sure the oats are all coated and then let them sit for a few minutes.
- Put the turkey and bacon in a separate large bowl and add the oats and any extra milk from the bowl to it. Add the parsley, seasoned salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes and 1/4 cup of the ketchup. Use your hands to mix it all together. Place a 1/4-cup scoop of the mixture in each greased muffin cup. Squirt about 1/2 teaspoon of the remaining ketchup on top of each meatloaf. Use a spoon to smear the ketchup evenly over the top, then use it to nudge the edges of the meatloaves away from the pan a bit (this just neatens them up a little).
- Bake for 25 minutes, then carefully squirt another 1/2 teaspoon of ketchup on top of each, spreading it carefully with a spoon to cover as much of the surface as possible. Continue to bake until completely cooked through and sizzling around the edges, about another 30 minutes. If there are any large areas without ketchup, go ahead and squirt/spread more as needed.
- Sprinkle the meatloaves with parsley, then let them sit in the pan for 5 to 7 minutes before serving. Run a sharp knife around the edges of the loaves to loosen them if they stick. Serve them warm with a veggie on the side

This quickly became a staple in my health-conscious household. You make the meatloaf in a muffin tin so portion control is easy as pie.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Heat a small skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add onion to pan; saute 5 minutes or until slightly browned. Remove from heat; cool slightly.
- Combine onion, breadcrumbs, and next 7 ingredients (through egg white) in a large bowl.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons of the ketchup.
- Spoon about 1/2 cup of the meat mixture into each of 3 muffin cups coated with cooking spray; place muffin tin on a baking sheet. (This is necessary to keep the oven clean, as the juices of the meatloaves tend to bubble up out of the muffin cups and can drip on the floor of the oven.).
- Combine remaining 1 tablespoon ketchup with hot pepper sauce in a small bowl. Brush ketchup mixture over meat loaf tops.
- Bake at 350 for 30 minutes or until a thermometer registers 165 degrees.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality ground turkey: Look for ground turkey that is fresh and has a lean-to-fat ratio of 93/7 or higher. This will ensure that your mini turkey loaf is moist and flavorful.
- Use a variety of seasonings: Don't be afraid to experiment with different seasonings to flavor your mini turkey loaf. Some popular options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, thyme, and sage.
- Add moisture: Mini turkey loaves can sometimes be dry, so it's important to add some moisture to the mixture. You can do this by adding eggs, milk, or broth. You can also add vegetables, such as carrots, celery, and onions, which will add moisture and flavor.
- Cook the mini turkey loaf thoroughly: Mini turkey loaves should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. This will ensure that the loaf is safe to eat and that the turkey is cooked through.
- Let the mini turkey loaf rest before slicing: Once the mini turkey loaf is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the loaf, making it more moist and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Mini turkey loaves are a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or sandwich. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. With a little planning and preparation, you can create a mini turkey loaf that is sure to impress your family and friends.
