These mini meatloaves are so good! I usually make 2 dozen and freeze them before baking in small aluminum foil pans for a quick on the go weeknight supper. I have reduced the ingredients for 4 mini meatloaves, for you.
You’ll need one pound sirloin ground beef, 2 beaten eggs, 1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs, 1 cup feta cheese crumbles, one teaspoon oregano, 2 shallots diced, 1/2 cup chopped spinach (fresh or thaw frozen is fine), 8 slices bacon (halved), salt and black pepper to taste.
In a large mixing bowl add ground beef, eggs, breadcrumbs, oregano, shallots, spinach, feta crumbles, salt, black pepper and with clean hands mix together to combine ingredients. Form 4 mini meatloaves and add two slices of bacon (cut in half on top of each mini loaf). Place inside mini aluminum pans or on a large baking rimmed sheet pan. Place into a 375 F pre heated oven and bake 35-40 minutes. Remove from oven.
If freezing them you can freeze before baking or after baking. I prefer to freeze them un-baked. Serve with your favorite side dishes and enjoy!
They are a favorite!

Thank you, you are my lifesaver! I was just pondering what to make for dinner tonight. I don’t have any feta but I do have everything else. Yay!!! And these are the perfect size for my family, especially when the daughter doesn’t eat at home half the time. 🙂
