Saute

• 3 garlic cloves
• ¼ cup vidala onion
• 1/8 cup finely diced celery
• 1/8 cup finely diced carrots
• 1/8 cup finely diced mushrooms
• 1 Tbsp olive oil

Add Ingredients

• 1 lb ground turkey
• ½ cup panko or bread crumbs
• ½ cup dry oatmeal
• 1 egg
• ½ cup ketchup
• ½ cup grape jelly
• 2 Tbsp grated parmesan cheese
• 1/8 tsp chili powder
• Salt & pepper

Saute veggie mixture for about 5 minutes on medium heat.  Mix together with all other ingredients in a large bowl.  Mix well with hands.  Pat into muffin tins, filling only 1/3 full.  Top with ketchup hearts and mozzarella slice hearts, if desired.  Bake at 350 for 15 – 20 minutes, then check for doneness.  Edges should be firm and center fully cooked.

For a large meatloaf, pat into a baking dish, in a loaf shape, and bake for approximately one hour.
