Here is another one, lemon chicken. yum

1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
PREPARATION:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Place chicken breasts in a baking dish and spoon marinade over them. Roast for 25 minutes. Serve with a wild rice blend and steamed vegetables.

Those look pretty tasty! I'd never thought of making meatloaf in muffin pans... I have little bread loaf pans I use instead and just freeze little bricks of it, they usually make a meal or two. That chicken sounds pretty tasty as well... I'll have to try them!
The meat looks pretty good. Just get rid of the aspargus. You don't want it to be *too* healthy.
so does that mean YOU'RE going to cook next ma, or what? :D
I would have to say get rid of the ketchup with the meat.
And that sounds like you cook Ria, and i know that's not true.
