Minutes to Prepare: 5 Minutes to Cook: 5 Number of Servings: 1
Ingredients
4 oz Beef ground
1/4 cup PictSweet Seasoning Blend, (frozen onions, bell peppers, celery and parsley.)
2 tbsps. Oatmeal (plain)
3 tbsps. Catsup
1/2 tsp Garlic
1 tsp. Italian Seasoning.
1 cup Green Beans Cut
Cooking Spray
Instructions
Place frozen seasoning in a microwave for about 30
second to defrost then drain liquid then in a bowl mix defrosted seasoning,
ground beef, Oatmeal, Catsup, Garlic, and Italian Seasoning until all combined.
Spray cooking cup and place meat mixture
in cup. Pat down in a cup/mug so you have a firm base. Cover meat mixture with cut green beans, add salt and pepper to the
veggies on top. Put in microwave, cover loosely (I use one of those microwave
covers with the holes). Cook at 2-minute
intervals for about 5-6 minutes, depending on the microwave oven. Test for readiness
with a fork. Make sure you test sides and middle. When cooking is complete, let it
rest for 5 minutes. You can eat right from cup or turn onto a plate, either way
it is good eating.
Tips
The Green Beans on top are used to keep the meat from drying
out. You can use any veggies to top this meatloaf in a cup, make sure they
are something that cooks fast. Chopped bell peppers, canned Lima beans,
Asparagus, corn adjust nutrition facts as needed.
