Oriental Mini Meatloves

If you're looking for a way to control your portion size, this recipe is great!  The flavour is wonderful and you can use the recipe to make meatballs if you prefer that.  I used a jumbo muffin tin for part of the meat mixture and a regular size muffin tin for the rest (perfect size for my 2 year old).  They didn't fill up the cups as nicely as I thought so they are a bit irregularly shaped but the taste is great.  They cooked for exactly 30 minutes and came out perfectly done.  The sauce is also great but a bit too sweet for me.  Perhaps less honey would be better next time.  I served them over instant rice and drizzled the sauce over the top.  As usual, I got this recipe from recipezaar.
