Meatloaf Muffins

• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 1 cup onion, minced
• 12 cup carrot, shredded then minced
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 cup ketchup, divided
• 1 12 lbs ground beef, extra lean
• 1 cup breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons prepared mustard
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 14 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
• 2 large eggs
• cooking spray, as needed
• 4 cups yukon gold potatoes, cubed mashed
• 14 cup reduced-fat milk (2 percent)
• 14 cup low-fat sour cream
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 12 teaspoon salt
• 14 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
• 3 tablespoons chives, chopped
• 4 pieces bacon, cooked chopped

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
3. Add chopped onion, chopped carrot, dried oregano and minced garlic.
4. Saute 2 minutes.
5. Take off the heat and allow to cool completely.
6. Combine onion mixture, 1/2 cup ketchup, and the remaining ingredients except cooking spray in a large bowl.
7. Spoon the meat mixture into 12 muffin cups coated with cooking spray.
8. Top each with 2 teaspoons ketchup.
9. Bake at 350 degrees F for 25 minutes or until a thermometer registers 160 degrees F. Let stand for 5 minutes.
10. While the meatloaf is cooking, make the mashed potatoes.
11. Place potatoes in a saucepan and cover with water.
12. Bring to a boil.
13. Cover, reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes or until tender.
14. Drain.
15. Put potatoes into a ricer for best results.
16. Return potatoes to pan.
17. Add milk along with the remaining ingredients and stir with a spoon to desired consistency.
18. If they are not creamy enough for you, add up to 1/4 cup more milk - although they need to be stiff enough to pipe on top.
19. Put the potatoes into a pastry bag with a wide star tip and pipe the mashed potatoes on top of the meatloaf.
20. Sprinkle with bacon crumbles and chopped chives.
