I am really trying hard to embrace this freestyle lifestyle, it is hard when you don’t eat many of the zero point foods, but I’m trying to create recipes that will help me. These turkey meatloaf muffins are so easy to whip up and one is zero smart points and up to 4 is only 1 SP. These are great for me to have on a day I know I want to make one of my meals higher in points. They freeze well and are great to take to work for lunch.

    When I calculate the freestyle points on my app for ten servings , it comes out to 1 point per serving because of the panko . How do you get zero freestyle points for one?

      HI Gail, your panko is maybe a different brand? Mine is 3SP for the 1/2 cup as stated in my post, the only other point is from the Worchestshire

  2. I want to make a batch of these this weekend to enjoy for lunch next week. But I’m not sure how big a “regular” size muffin is. Not “mini muffin” size, right? More like cupcake size maybe?

      Hi Mary, a regular 12 hole muffin tin, no not mini

  3. I am just baking these right now, can’t wait to try them. I can never find fat free turkey, it’s always about 92%. Where do you get yours? I live in Alberta so if you get it at the major grocery stores I should be able to find it.

      HI Darlene, I go to a local butcher and sometimes I’ll just get grocery store turkey which is about 95%, I’m in Ontario, I don’t stress if it’s not 99% I just go with it 🙂 I hope you enjoy them

      • They turned out really good. I LOVE your turkey burgers with the salsa and I think I am going to try and make those in muffin tins. Thanks for all your recipes, I make lots of them.

          You are very welcome, I’m so glad your enjoying all the recipes

      • I get mine at Wal-Mart, in the U.S. , 99% Fat free. I also use this recipe in a similar way and make turkey meatballs. In pasta sauce, teriyaki, BBQ sauce. So versatile. I’ll definitely try the mini meatloaves!!!! Yum!!

    Made these for me to have with my salad this week for lunch the only thing I did different I followed the recipe exactly was I added a swipe of canned tomato paste per muffin and made a nice Brown topping and made a nice flavor

      Thanks for sharing Denise, hope you enjoyed them 🙂

  5. I am new to WW and I only have 80% lean ground beef on hand (I will be getting ground chicken and turkey tomorrow). I cooked it and after draining I rinsed the fat off. How do I calculate this into this recipe?

    • Trader Joe’s has a 96% fat free ground beef
      4 oz is 2 points

  6. I made these today to have for lunch and to put in the freezer. Delicious! Thanks for another great recipe! I have yet to try one of your recipes that I didn’t love.

    • Drizzle Reply

      That is so great to hear, thanks Denise 🙂

  7. These were tasty and family approved. Next time I will make a double or triple batch and freeze a bunch after cooking them.

  8. I made these tonight and GAME CHANGER! We (the whole family) loved them. I almost want to make another 10 for the next few lunches. Super moist and full of flavour!
    Thank you

      Hi Melissa, I am so glad the whole family enjoyed them 🙂

  9. These were delicious! Great flavour and super moist! Thanks for the recipe!

    Can you make this recipe into a loaf instead of muffin size ?

    • Drizzle Reply

      Yes I think the loaf will work as well, I’d increase the baking time

  11. I stuffed this mixture into peppers that I cut in half and made stuffed peppers. I poured an 8 oz can of tomato sauce over it and baked at 400 for about an hour. I made a few adjustments for my own personal taste and it came out very good!

    • Drizzle Reply

      That sounds awesome Liz, thanks for sharing 🙂

  12. These are excellent. Have tried with extra lean ground chicken. Next will try with 1/2 extra lean ground beef and 1/2 extra lean ground pork.Will calculate the extra WW points. I have omitted the thyme spice not a favourite of mine. I also bake them in parchment large baking cups. Thanks for the awesome recipe.

      Thanks for the tips Shirley 🙂 so glad you enjoy them

  13. Tried this recipe for the first time. Although I sprayed the pan beforehand, the muffins stuck and we’re very difficult to remove. Large portions stuck to the pan. Although I packed the mixture in the cups, it didn’t really stay together. The taste is good, though!

      Sorry to hear that Michelle, I did not have an issue with mine, I guess all pans are different

      You are very welcome, so glad you enjoyed them 🙂
