Savory Cupcakes with a hint of beef and starch!
 <  Image 1 of 2  > 

I have found several different examples of this culinary art work of foodies' websites and blogs (just google "meat cupcakes") This is a clever twist on the traditional "meat and potatoes" dinner; perfect for those people who have kids that are finiky eaters. Make fun of dinner!

  1. Step 1

    Step 1

    Set your oven to 325 Degrees F. and prep your meatloaf as you normally would. For mine: 1 lbs. ground turkey, 1 egg, bread crumbs (to make it more formed and you can sub crackers), yummy spices.

  2. Step 2

    Step 2

    Grease your muffin tin and tightly pack the mixed meat.


  3. Step 3

    Step 3

    Place the tin in your pre-heated oven (325 degrees F.) for 25-35 minutes. That's me there getting an inferno blast in the face!

  4. Step 4

    Step 4

    Now for the potatoes. While I love fresh, homemade potatoes; I find that instant potatoes satisfy my starch needs RIGHT AWAY! To help spruce them up though, I save the butter/garlic sauce from a certain pizza joint and use that as a kicky flavor.


  5. Step 5

    Step 5

    Make sure you check your meat cakes. I rely on my trusty meat thermometer since this was my first go-around and my oven is tempremental.

  6. Step 6

    Step 6

    Once the patatoes are done put them into a ziploc bag and snip the corner. This serves as a pastry bag would for frosting.

  7. Step 7

    Step 7

    Pipe the "frosting" (potatoes) on to the fully cooked meat "cakes." Pile 'em high!

  8. Step 8

    Step 8

    Garnish with spices or if you're really creative veggies and such. Good Eatins!
