How to make homemade meatloaf cups

I posted a picture on facebook of my meatloaf cups and everybody loved them so I decided to share the recipe! Usually I just throw whatever in the mix, but here is the general gist of what you'll need. I love excuses to use my new brownie pan! If it isn't in your kitchen yet, you're missing out!
Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
1/4 cup onions, chopped
1 egg
1 piece of bread - crumbled (or you can use breadcrumbs)
1/4 tsp salt and pepper
1 clove of garlic - crushed
1/2 tsp crushed red peppers
1/2 tsp steakhouse onion burger from McCormick
1/4 tsp kick'n chicken from Weber
1/2 tsp roasted garlic and herb from McCormick
1/3 cup ketchup

Tools: (Click on name to purchase)
Brownie Pan
Batter Bowl
Mini Nylon Spatula
Garlic Press
Direction:
-Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Combine all of the ingredients in your batter bowl. I like to do the dry first, then wet, then meat. Mix well with your hands (yes your hands, they're your best tool in the kitchen) until well combined.
- Pinch out enough to fill each cup in the brownie pan about 3/4 of the way full to ensure you will have enough to fill each cup.

- Top it off with a bit of ketchup and place in oven for about 30 minutes.
- Once done, take out of the oven and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Enjoy! My favorite thing to pair with meatloaf is roasted garlic and onion mashed potatoes! It is the ultimate comfort food meal. As you can tell from the ingredient list, this meatloaf is packed full of flavor. You don't have to use the exact spices I used, just use whatever is in your pantry! Food it meant to be fun, experimented with. I hope you love it!

Rice Krispies Treats in a Brownie Pan!?

If you're anything like me - you love rice krispie treats. And if we're similar in that aspect, I bet you also hate getting your hands slathered in butter while attempting to coat whatever pan you're using so that these marshmallowy squares of goodness pop right into your mouth without clinging to the sides of the pan. I've been there, its a pain to clean. Ever since my new pampered chef consultant kit came in I have been using my brownie pan non-stop. I've made chicken fried rice cups, mini meatloaves, and philly cheesesteak bombs to name a few. And tonight there wasn't much in the pantry and I was hungry. I spotted a box of rice krispie cereal and a bag of marshmallows just waiting to be cooked. This was also a good test of how much our batter bowl holds. It's big enough to measure out the 6 cups of cereal as well as combine the melted marshmallows so its a definite winner in my book. Saves one less measuring cup from having to be rinsed. After everything was combined I poured the mixture into the brownie pan UNGREASED. I wasn't sure how well this would work, I've tried nonstick pans before and the marshmallow still clung to the pan. This time was different. I waited for the rice krispies treats to cool and then, using only my hands, popped them out easily to taste. If this pan isn't in your home I strongly encourage you to purchase one, it is my favorite thing in the kitchen. There are endless possibilities for it! Happy cooking!

So it begins

Hi everyone!
As a certified picky eater, its a big deal when I like something that isn't chicken fingers and potatoes. Not only that, but as a working college student, I don't always have a lot of time to make a meal when I come home. I've developed, tested, and failed at a lot of recipe's over the years and I'm going to be bringing you the best of the best that have also been boyfriend tested and approved. I'll share my secret ultimate cookie recipe, the easiest, most delicious chicken you will ever taste, and what I've found that works in the kitchen and what doesn't. I'm going to be completely honest with you about everything, if I don't like something it won't be posted. If I hate something, you'll get an explanation to why. And if I completely fail at making a dish, I'll offer tips so that the same mistake doesn't happen to you. Albeit, when I find something I love you will be the FIRST to know. I hope you'll check back often for updates, recipes, and ideas. For now, if you're available on Thursday 1/15 and Saturday 1/17 I'd love to invite you into my home to give you a taste of what's to come.
