Calories: 306kcal
Ingredients
- 1 ¼ pounds 85% lean ground beef
- 1 medium zucchini, shredded and squeezed dry
- 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella, divided
- 1 cup marinara sauce (or slightly more)
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 6-cup muffin tin lightly with cooking spray. In a large mixing bowl combine the ground beef, shredded zucchini, 1 cup shredded mozzarella, onion powder, garlic powder, parsley, and oregano. Mix well.
- Divide the mixture into the muffin cups, filling about ¾ full. Spread the sauce across the top of each loaf using a spoon.
- Bake in the preheated oven on a baking sheet for about 35 minutes, or until a thermometer inserted into the middle of each mini meatloaf registers 165 degrees. Remove from the oven and carefully tilt to drain the grease. Top with the remaining mozzarella cheese and place back in the oven for 5-10 minutes until the cheese is melted.
