Mini Meatloaf Boats

Meatloaf:
1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
1 cup tomato juice
3/4 cup Quaker® Oats (quick or old fashioned, uncooked)
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 egg, lightly beaten
4 to 6 teaspoons Mexican seasoning blend

Toppings:
3 slices American cheese, halved diagonally
6 thin pretzel sticks
Salsa or catsup, as desired

1. Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, combine meatloaf ingredients; mix lightly but thoroughly. Divide mixture into 6 equal parts. On rack of broiler pan, shape each into 4 x 2-3/4-inch oval loaf. Press the back of a measuring tablespoon into the top of each loaf to form a pocket. (After baking, pocket will hold the salsa.)
2. Bake 25 to 28 minutes or until meatloaves are to medium doneness and centers are no longer pink (160°F). Remove meatloaves from oven. Drain off any juices.
3. Form “sails” by carefully inserting pretzel sticks into cheese. Attach “sails” to meatloaves and fill with salsa.

Makes 6 servings.
