my potato-topped mini meatloaves
I made these when my Mother was still alive and living in a Nursing Home. I'd bring her home on week ends and once served her these because they were easy for her to eat. Having the meat,potato's and gravy all together was easy for her to handle her fork. My family along with my Mom that has since passed loved them. I have made these with my own stuffing also using onion, celery and a little sage with lean ground turkey and omiting the steak sauce. Then I used Turkey gravy. It's like a little Thanksgiving in one little bundle. Enjoy!!
