How to Make 35 Minute Yummy Easy Meatloaf Potatoes
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a 1 ½-quart casserole dish, combine 6 tablespoons melted margarine, 2 cups hot water, ⅔ cup milk, 4 cups (about 1 lb) instant mashed potato flakes, and 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until smooth and well-blended.
- In a medium bowl, mix 1 lb ground beef, 1 large egg, and 1 packet of your favorite meatloaf seasoning mix until thoroughly combined.
- Press the beef mixture into 12 ungreased regular-sized muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
- Arrange the mini meatloaves on top of the potato mixture in the casserole dish.
- Bake uncovered for 30-35 minutes, or until the meatloaves are no longer pink in the center and the potatoes are heated through.
- Carefully remove from the oven and let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
- Serve immediately with your favorite ketchup or other desired toppings.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
