Turkey Meatloaf Muffins....YUM!

Friday, August 31, 2012

On this 30 Day Challenge there have definitely been some hard days. The thought of another chicken meal can be a little daunting sometimes. But, getting back on track is easier when you can look forward to a great meal. I have found a ton of resources online and I love Jamie Eason's recipes on bodybuilding.com. She has some really easy recipes made with ingredients that you have at home and best of all.....they are clean!

We love things a little spicy around our house so naturally these meatloaf muffins are a huge hit. You can change the level of heat by adjusting the chipotle pepper, making this a family friendly meal. When we make these muffins there are always leftovers and I think that they taste even better the next day. Hope you enjoy them as much as we do!
