Pan Fried Mini Meatloaf

December 3, 2014 by jlpenner 7 Comments

This is a yummy and simple meatloaf recipe.  Comes together quickly by pan frying instead of baking.  Short on time? These Pan Fried Mini Meatloaves are perfect.My family loves meatloaf.

It’s great with mashed potatoes or Cheddar Bacon Risotto and even better for leftovers the next day on a sandwich!

(I will admit to eating it for breakfast sometimes).

But some days I am in a hurry and don’t have the time for it to cook in the oven.  This is when I had the idea to pan fry them as individual loaves or patties.  It works great and you end up cutting the cooking time about in half, which is perfect for us busy cooks!

This recipe is pretty simple, but you can add any of your favorite spices or even use BBQ sauce for the glaze on top!

Yum.

    Lol! How timely! Last night we had meatloaf and my son (who spend several years in institutional homes before coming to live with me) told me that his favorite meatloaf was "pan fried." I asked if he meant that it was reheated in a frying pan and he said no, it was cooked that way. I'd never heard of this! So I guess I'll have to print this out and make it some time soon. Thank you for the recipe!

    I love this mini meatloaves! We add cheese to the meat and brown sugar to the glaze and bake. I might try the stove next time and see how that works. Thanks for the idea!

    Meatloaf for breakfast? Dam straight! Good food is good any time! I think I might do minced onions and garlic but the recipe look delicious.
