Meatloaf Bites:
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
Glaze:
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1 tablespoon mustard
Garnish:
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (plus extra for garnish)
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare Meat Mixture: In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, onion, garlic, salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix until just combined; avoid overmixing to keep the meat tender.
- Form Meatloaf Bites: Take a tablespoon-sized portion of the meat mixture, flatten it in your palm, place a small amount of grated cheddar cheese in the center, and fold the meat around the cheese to form a ball. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
- Prepare Glaze: In a small bowl, mix together ketchup and mustard. Brush this glaze over each meatloaf bite.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through and the glaze is caramelized.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven, sprinkle with additional chopped parsley, and serve warm.
