Rio Grande Mini Loaves
"This came from a box of Near East Spanish Rice. It's a great change from ordinary meatloaves, and cooks up very quickly! I serve it with Spanish rice and a salad."

Loved it and so did the family. I left out the tortilla chips because my husband is on a restricted diet & it still tasted great! Easy meal to reheat when the family is busy with different schedules. -
Super good, easy and quick! I made these with ground turkey rather than beef and they were so moist and tender! The tortilla chip crumbs gave them a tamale-like flavor which we loved. Surely to reappear on my table! Thanks for posting.
