BLUE CHEESE, SPINACH MEAT LOAF MUFFINS



Blue Cheese, Spinach Meat Loaf Muffins image

Moist, flavorful and absolutely one of the best meat loaf recipes yet! Using a large muffin pan allows the mini meat muffins to cook faster and makes portion sizing easier. I like to serve this with sweet potatoes or butternut squash. I think the mini meat loaves taste great the next day as they are easy to put away and re-heat. Try making a meat loaf sandwich out of them too.
