Sheet Pan Recipe for a Mini Meatloaf Dinner

I promised myself that in the new year I would try my hand at more sheet pan recipes and instant pot recipes.  Well, a month has come and gone and I recently made a sheet pan recipe.  This Mini Meatloaf Dinner was amazing!

Mini Meatloaf Sheet Pan Recipe

If there is one thing I know for fact, it’s that I still feel like a novice in the kitchen.  I love trying new recipes, but within certain boundaries.  Hee-hee.  I’m not a fancy, over complicated cook — it’s not realistic to me.

And, if I had to be honest, some days I’m just too lazy to cook and I’m a terrible meal planner.  I guess you could say I’ve been trying a different form of meal planning.  I like to just pick 4-5 recipes and get all the ingredients to have on-hand.  That seems to give us options, but nothing too regimented.  It seems to be working too.  Yay!

This mini meatloaf sheet pan recipe caught my eye in a diabetic publication and like I mentioned earlier, I really wanted to give these one pan recipes a try.  Since we don’t eat a lot of beef, I was excited to make this meatloaf dish.  I tweaked a few things and crossed my fingers as I placed into the oven.

The real test of success for a recipe is getting my husbands approval.  We both agreed this was a great dish!  The meatloaf has amazing flavor, so I’m certain you won’t be disappointed.

Mini Meatloaf Sheet Pan Dinner

Servings 4 people

Calories 345 kcal

Ingredients

Meatloaf

• 1 egg lightly beaten
• 1/4 cup shredded carrot
• 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
• 3 tbsp. ketchup
• 1 tsp. yellow mustard
• 1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
• 1 clove garlic minced
• 1 lb. extra-lean ground beef

Meatloaf Sauce

• 1/4 cup ketchup
• 2 tbsp. packed brown sugar
• 1 tsp. yellow mustard

Potatoes and Seasoning

• 8-12 oz. baby potatoes
• 2 tsp. olive oil
• 1 tsp. dried oregano, crushed
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 1/4 tsp. pepper

Green Beans

• 8 oz fresh green beans, trimmed

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350º F.  Grease 13x9-inch baking sheet (or line with foil).

2. In a large bowl combine the first eight ingredients, through garlic. Add ground beef, mix well.  Shape mixture into four round loaves and place on one half of the baking sheet.

3. In a small bowl combine the ketchup, brown sugar and yellow mustard; spread over meatloaves.

4. Wash and dry large bowl.  Combine the potato seasoning ingredients. Toss to coat. Place in the other half of the prepared pan.

5. Bake 40-45 minutes or until meatloaves are done and potatoes are tender.  Add green beans after 20 minutes.

For this recipe, I used a 9×13 cookie sheet (with a lip).   It was the perfect size and cleaned up very well — even without using foil.
