Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Generously coat 18 standard muffin cups (from two 12-cup muffin pans) with cooking spray.
- Put the oats in a small bowl and slowly pour the milk over them. Stir to make sure the oats are all coated and then let them sit for a few minutes.
- Put the turkey and bacon in a separate large bowl and add the oats and any extra milk from the bowl to it. Add the parsley, seasoned salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes and 1/4 cup of the ketchup. Use your hands to mix it all together. Place a 1/4-cup scoop of the mixture in each greased muffin cup. Squirt about 1/2 teaspoon of the remaining ketchup on top of each meatloaf. Use a spoon to smear the ketchup evenly over the top, then use it to nudge the edges of the meatloaves away from the pan a bit (this just neatens them up a little).
- Bake for 25 minutes, then carefully squirt another 1/2 teaspoon of ketchup on top of each, spreading it carefully with a spoon to cover as much of the surface as possible. Continue to bake until completely cooked through and sizzling around the edges, about another 30 minutes. If there are any large areas without ketchup, go ahead and squirt/spread more as needed.
- Sprinkle the meatloaves with parsley, then let them sit in the pan for 5 to 7 minutes before serving. Run a sharp knife around the edges of the loaves to loosen them if they stick. Serve them warm with a veggie on the side

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Arrange oven racks to accommodate two dishes being cooked simultaneously.
- Grind the bread in a food processor until fine crumbs form. Transfer to a large bowl, and pour milk over crumbs.
- Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large skillet, preferably nonstick, over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden, about 5 minutes. Add spinach, and stir until just wilted, about 30 seconds. Transfer to bowl with soaked crumbs. Add the turkey, cheese, egg, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Combine the mixture with your hands until well mixed; it will be quite wet.

Repeat three times with remaining mixture. Bake mini meatloaves until cooked through and golden, about 40 minutes.
- While the meatloaves are cooking, make the glaze: In a small bowl combine the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and hot sauce. Brush over meatloaves.
- To make the roasted root vegetables: On a baking sheet, toss all the vegetables in the olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Add to the oven along with the meatloaves and roast for 30 to 35 minutes, stirring midway through baking. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh herbs.

Steps:
- In a small bowl soak oats in cold water for about 10 minutes, then drain. In a large bowl combine turkey, oats and remaining ingredients. In large skillet heat olive oil and keep at medium - high heat. Mash turkey mixture with one hand until smooth. (Wash hands with soap afterwards!) Carefully drop 1/2 cup portions of mixture into skillet. Lower heat to medium. Flip over after 5-8 minutes and cook for another 5-8 minutes. Keep checking bottom sides while cooking, you want it to brown evenly and not get too dark. (Check for meat to be cooked through before serving.)
Tips:
- Use ground turkey breast for a leaner meatloaf. You can also use a combination of ground turkey and ground beef.
- Add some vegetables to the meatloaf mixture, such as grated carrots, zucchini, or onions. This will add flavor and nutrients.
- Use a variety of seasonings to flavor the meatloaf. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and Italian seasoning.
- Don't overmix the meatloaf mixture. Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough.
- Form the meatloaf mixture into small loaves, about 3 inches in diameter.
- Bake the meatloaves in a preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are cooked through.
- Serve the meatloaves with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
Conclusion:
These turkey mini meatloaves are a delicious and easy way to get your family to eat their vegetables. They are also a great option for a weeknight meal, as they can be made ahead of time and reheated.
