⅓ cup (75 mL) finely shredded onion (1 small)

Directions

Combine beef, egg, 1/2 cup (125 mL) of the cheese, onion, bread crumbs, relish, mustard, salt and pepper. Mix lightly but thoroughly to blend.

Lightly spray 12 muffin or custard cups with cooking spray. Divide mixture among cups; make indentation in centre of each with back of spoon. Fill indentations with ketchup. Sprinkle each with remaining cheese, dividing equally.

Bake in 375°F (190°C) oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until digital rapid-read thermometer inserted into meat portion of EACH reads 160°F (71°C).

Bright Idea

You can grate the onion so kids don’t come across any “unpleasant bits” they want to pick out.

Make Ahead Tip

For a wholesome meal that is ready when you are, make ahead and freeze some mini meat loaves. Wrap each cooled meat loaf separately in plastic wrap or foil; freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw and heat in microwave in just minutes.
