Turkey Meat Loaf

SOURCE: Cooking Light YEAR: 2001 ISSUE: March PAGE: 156

INGREDIENTS FOR 6 SERVINGS:
2 pounds ground turkey breast
1 cup quick-cooking oats
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup (1 ounce) grated fresh Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon dried oregano
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons dried basil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Cooking spray
1/4 cup ketchup

INSTRUCTIONS:
"This dish is packed with flavor and is a family favorite at my
house. I serve it with garlic mashed potatoes--Yukon golds are the
best choice--and grilled or steamed vegetables. If you're making it
for a red-meat lover, it's OK to replace one pound of the ground
turkey with ground round." --Vivian F. Stewart, Pembroke Pines, FL

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

2. Combine the first 10 ingredients in a large bowl.

3. Place the turkey mixture in a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan coated with
cooking spray. Top with 1/4 cup ketchup. Bake at 400 degrees for 1
hour and 15 minutes or until done. Let stand for 10 minutes before
slicing. Yield: 6 servings.

Dredging up an old thread...

I used this recipe as a base for turkey meatballs last night - and they were perfect! Exactly what I was looking for. I used ground turkey breast, and I was afraid they would taste dry, but they were very moist (at first I was worried that they were undercooked). I used dried parsley and oregano, but fresh basil, and Pecorino Romano cheese. I browned them in a skillet and then baked them at 350°F for about 15 minutes. Served them with red sauce and whole wheat spaghetti.

Definite repeater! I might not even bother trying another recipe :D

Kristin, glad you dredged this up, it looks yummy! I like the idea of making meatballs. :)

Kristin,
I'm glad you brought this thread up too. I had never cooked meatloaf before. And I'm not the biggest carnivore, so the thought of meatloaf kind of grossed me out. But I had lots of ground turkey in the freezer, so I thought I'd try it. (I was actually cooking it tonight for lunch tomorrow, etc). When I took it out, it smelled so good that I had to try it. And I ended up eating half a piece (way past dinner, by the way). It is SO good!

I hope DH likes it as much as I do. I don't think he's a meatloaf fan, either.

this is my favorite meatloaf recipe. I am sure I have mentioned that it is my favorite on other threads. the taste is great, but I especially love how easy it is!

[KristinK]

Too funny! I just made the meatballs again last night, per DBF's request. He wanted them for his lunches this week, but I did snag one for myself - guess it was an appetizer ;)

Oh and this time, I skipped the browning and just baked them at 400°F for 20 minutes. Stupid me, making that extra step (and dirty skillet!) the first time around.

Val, as this is your fav meatloaf recipe, I'm curious to know if you made a modification to this one.

You always have good ideas.

[valchemist]

KristinK,

I was wondering about how big did you make your meatballs and how many you got out of this recipe?

TIA!!

Oh, good question. I should have mentioned that - and the fact that both times, I cut the recipe in half for only 1 pound of ground turkey breast.

I made them about 1-1/2 inches in diameter, I guess, which made 18 meatballs (3 servings, 6 meatballs per serving).
