I love finding recipes that are tasty and lower in “points”. This month for Surprise Recipe Swap, I was partnered with Marlene of NoshMyWay.com. She has a great collection of recipes and they all look delicious. After looking over her numerous recipes I decided to make her Individual Meatloaf Muffins. Not only did the muffin meat loaf sound yummy but I knew they would freeze well for future meals. An added bonus was that I had everything on hand so it was an easy task to whip them up for dinner. You can read her recipe here.
