How do you make an HG meatloaf even better? Shrink it down, and stuff it with cheese! WOO and HOO!

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups finely chopped onion
1 1/2 cups finely chopped mushrooms
1 1/2 lb. extra-lean ground beef (4% fat or less)
3/4 cup fat-free liquid egg substitute (like Egg Beaters Original)
3/4 cup quick-cooking oats
1/2 cup ketchup
2 tsp. chopped garlic
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
3 sticks light string cheese, each cut into 4 pieces

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick spray.

Bring a large skillet sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat. Cook and stir onion and mushrooms until softened, 5 - 7 minutes.

Transfer veggies to a large bowl, and blot away excess moisture. Add all remaining ingredients except string cheese. Mix thoroughly with your hands.

Evenly distribute meat mixture among the muffin cups. Press a piece of string cheese into the center of each cup, and enclose it within the meat mixture. Bake until firm with lightly browned edges, 20 - 25 minutes. Dig in!
