Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 cup 1% buttermilk (I haven’t tried this with nonfat, which is much thinner)
  • 1 cup old fashioned oats (use certified gluten free if necessary )
  • 1 (1.3 pound) package lean ground turkey
  • 1/2 yellow onion (diced
)
  • 1 green bell pepper (diced)
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 large egg (slightly beaten)
  • 1 - 1 1/2 teaspoons salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon steak sauce (I used A1)
  • 8 tablespoons BBQ sauce (divided plus more for serving)
  • 1 (6-12 oz ) block sharp cheddar cheese (cubed into 1/2 - 1 oz cubes)

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and grease a standard 12-slot non stick muffin tin with cooking spray.
  • Combine buttermilk and oatmeal in a small bowl. Set aside for 10 minutes to allow oatmeal to soften.
  • In a large bowl, add in turkey, onion, bell pepper, garlic, egg, salt, pepper, steak sauce, 2 tablespoons BBQ sauce, and oatmeal/buttermilk mixture.
  • Use hands to combine.
  • Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to place 1/4 cup of the meatloaf mixture into each of the greased muffin slots.
  • Gently press in a 1/2 - 1 oz cube of cheddar cheese into each slot.
  • Top each cheese cube with an additional (approximately) 1 tablespoon of the meatloaf mixture.
  • Make sure the cheese is fully covered and the edges of the meatloaf mixture get sealed together or else the cheese will spurt out.
  • Top each meatloaf cup with 1/2 tablespoon BBQ sauce.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the turkey has cooked through.
  • Serve with BBQ sauce and enjoy!
