Yummy "Comfort Food" Dinner

This is one of my favorite meals and the whole family loves it, too!! Chicken Meatloaf Muffins with Cauliflower Mash! It's a cleaned up version of the typical meatloaf and potatoes. We had this last night and I'm sad to say that we didn't have leftovers...cause I want it AGAIN! My hubby took what we did have left for lunch today. Note to self... make a double batch next time! I recommend you do that too!! Here's the recipe

CHICKEN MEATLOAF MUFFINS
1 LB ground chicken (can use turkey or lean ground beef, instead!)
1 bell pepper (any color), diced - I used several mini bell peppers of different colors
1/4C diced cherry tomatoes
1 egg
2tsp dried oregano
sea salt & pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350. Combine all ingredients and mix well (I use my hands). Spray a muffin tin with Pam. Evenly fill each muffin cup - fills 10. Bake 20 minutes. You can top with a little low-sugar marinara, if you want. Three muffins are a serving. These are also great snacks for on the go - snack portion is 2.

CAULIFLOWER MASH
1 head of cauliflower, cut into florets

Steam cauliflower for 15-20 minutes. Let cool & blend. Before serving sprinkle on some pepper and sea salt. You can add a little coconut oil.
