This Easy Turkey Meatloaf Recipe with Vegetables makes a great weeknight dinner. You can also easily double the recipe and freeze half for another busy night.
INGREDIENT :
1 – 1.5 cups riced vegetables (Measure after riced/chopped – I use a mix of mushrooms, carrots and zucchini)*
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound 85% lean ground turkey (you could use 93% but I wouldn’t recommend 99% lean)
1 egg
2/3 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup ketchup
bbq sauce to glaze
optional – I always put a few shakes of McCormicks grill seasoning in mine. You could use your favorite seasoning mix, or just some salt and pepper
RECIPE DIRECTION :
Saute riced vegetables and garlic over medium heat for 8-10 minutes. You want the vegetables to cook and release their moisture. Let cool for a few minutes.
In a large bowl, combine the veggies, meat, egg, breadcrumbs and ketchup. Use a large spoon or your hands to make sure everything is well mixed.
Form into two loaves on a foil-lined pan.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 25-30 minutes or until center reaches 165 degrees.
