Ingredienser
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 3 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 8 ounces queso blanco, cut into 8 cubes

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, taco seasoning, breadcrumbs, egg, and milk until the mixture holds together.
  • Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions. Flatten each portion slightly, place one queso blanco cube in the center, and shape the meat around the cheese to seal it completely.
  • Arrange the formed mini meatloaves on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake for 25 minutes until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees and the cheese has softened inside.
  • Remove from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving with chopped cilantro on top.

Form the meat tightly around each cheese cube to prevent leaks during baking. If you want a bit more heat, stir an extra teaspoon of chili powder into the taco seasoning before mixing. Leftovers reheat well in a 350-degree oven for 10 minutes to keep the centers creamy without drying out the beef.
