Mini Cheese Stuffed Turkey Meatloaves
Made in a muffin tin with lots of garlic and Italian seasoning, these minis are stuffed with a generous amount of mozzarella and topped with your favorite marinara sauce. This recipe couldn’t be easier and is kid-approved! I like to serve them with oven fries and green salad. This recipe makes 8 meatloaves.
