For dinner they are great with sauteed spinach, green beans or a mixed green salad.
For lunch today I served them with a sliced cucumber & tomato salad with thousand island dressing which played well with the cheeseburger theme. Had kind of an In & Out Burger thing going on.
Shelly's Bacon Cheeseburger Turkey Mini Meatloaf
4 strips Bacon, cooked & crumbled
1 Yellow Onion, diced
4 Green Onions, diced
3 cloves of Garlic, minced
1 1/4 pounds Ground Turkey, the average weight of 1 package
1/4 cup Italian Style Dry Bread Crumbs (or I do Oatmeal soaked in the milk for a minute)
1/4 cup Milk
1 Egg, beaten
1 Tablespoon Prepared Mustard (Yellow or Dijon)
1 Tablespoon Tomato Paste
1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
a few twists of Black Pepper
1/2 cup Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded
Butter/Oil for sauteing
Cook 4 strips of bacon till crisp, drain on paper towel till cool and crumble. Set aside. Saute onions till golden. Add garlic cook 1 more minute. Set aside to cool. Soak breadcrumbs in milk for 1 minute. Beat egg. Add egg and soaked breadcrumbs to ground turkey. Add cooled veggies, crumbled bacon and all remaining ingredients. Mix till combined.
Divide into 8 equal mounds. Form into mini meatloaves or if you have this super groovy pan like me use it. Bake for 45 minutes in a 350 degree oven. These freeze well either cooked or uncooked. 
I have found the trick to eating leftovers as a post-op is to keep things moist. I love this gadget for that. You put a couple of tablespoons of water in the base and it steam heats the food. Totally keeps foods from drying out. One of the best post-op gadgets in my kitchen.Other Eggface Mini Meatloaves:

Highlights of the Day:
* Just got around to watching the latest episode of the Weight Loss Surgery Channel News. Thanks to Yvonne and Craig for the Eggface shout out. Check it out.
* Did a lot of cooking today... a big pot of minestrone-ish soup (lunch or dinner tomorrow) and I made another version of my Baked Ricotta Cups for dinner tonight. Soooo good. Watch for the food porn manana. I needed to use up some nervous energy. There's nothing like veggie chopping for that.
* Right now. Tunes. Hot Coffee with a splash of Sugar Free Vanilla Torani Syrup. Thankful for my family and friends.
