When my cousin passed this recipe my way I took heed. It is not an understatement to say that her idea of following a recipe includes removing the Lean Cuisine from the freezer and following the directions on the package. To her credit, she's made some killer dips and also offered up her culinary skills for the lovelies.
This recipe is quick, easy, and could easily be made as a regular meatloaf.... but making them in a muffin tin makes them that much more fun. It also serves as portion control. Smart thinking. Thank you, Shawn, for this tasty version of a hearty American staple. It's also a great use for the left-over egg whites from my Key Lime pie!
1 lb. lean turkey or ground beef
1 box Stovetop Stuffing, dry
2-3 egg whites
1 cup water
1 onion, chopped fine
1. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix well with both hands.
2. Spray muffin tin with Pam, and divide the mixture amongst the 12 cups.
3. Bake @ 350º for 35-40 minutes.

Key Lime Pie
I really thought when I left Florida I was leaving my favorite Florida recipe in the dust: Key Lime Pie. If you knew how simple, inexpensive, and delicious it is to make at home you'd never pay the ridiculous prices venues charge for this tasty Sunshine State treat again.
Thanks to our neighbor and friend, Barb, for introducing me to Nellie & Joe's Famous Lime Juice, and to Kroger where I stumbled upon it by accident.
½ cup Nellie & Joe's Key West Lime Juice
14 oz. can of sweetened condensed milk
3 egg yolks (whites not used)
9" graham cracker pie crust
1. Combine milk, egg yolks and lime juice. Blend until smooth.
2. Pour filling into pie crust and bake @ 350º for 15 minutes. {Allow to stand 10 minutes before refrigerating.}
Garnish with lime slices if desired.
Just before serving, top with whipped cream.
In our local Florida grocery store, Publix, Nellie Joe's was located in the health food section and by the mixed drinks. In our Ohio Kroger I found it next to the lemon juice in the juice aisle. You can search their website for retailers, or order it directly from the site.
