Place a little ketchup and mustard in separate resealable plastic bags to easily pipe fast, flavorful markings on the moist mini meat loaves.

You Will Need

1 egg

1 can (51⁄2 ounces) spicy-hot or picante V8

1⁄4 cup milk

1 cup seasoned bread crumbs

11⁄2 teaspoons seasoned salt

1 teaspoon chili powder

11⁄2 pounds lean ground beef

Ketchup and mustard

What to Do
1. In a large bowl, combine the first six ingredients. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Shape into six balls; flatten slightly. Make a hole in the center of each ball with the end of a wooden spoon handle.

2. Place in a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until meat is no longer pink and a meat thermometer reads 160°. Decorate with ketchup and mustard. Yield: 6 servings.
