So yesterday in my WIAW, I gave a sneak peak of a new recipe I created for Tuesday night’s dinner. My husband loves meatloaf, but some recipes can be pretty heavy and unhealthy. I knew ground turkey would be a nice way to lighten up the entree, while also adding some fun and delicious ‘fillers’ to the mix!
Ground Turkey Meatloaf
Ingredients
1 pound ground turkey
1/3 cup oats
1/2 can diced tomatoes with basil, oregano & garlic (Italian Style), drained
1/2 cup diced mushrooms
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 egg
Salt & pepper to taste
Directions
Set oven to 375 degrees.
Mix all ingredients in a large bowl.
After ingredients are mixed, place in a loaf pan.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, until meatloaf is cooked all the way through.
I served mine with kale chips and roasted potatoes. I also added a squirt of ketchup to my plate to keep a classic meatloaf taste.
Questions:
Are you a meatloaf fan?
Do you have a favorite ground turkey recipe?
For those meatloaf lovers: Ketchup or No Ketchup?
That looks yummy! I always hate having ground meat recipe leftovers though. I find they always reheat kind of weird! But I loveeee them the first night haha.
I love your idea of adding tomatoes + mushrooms to the mix! I love turkey meatloaf; I’ll have to add this to my list of things to try!
Thanks girl! I thought adding a couple veggie fillers would help lighten up the dish even more, besides being delicious!
I’m actually not much of a meatloaf fan, but this looks really good!!!
We love meatloaf in our house. And I am all about the ketchup on top with a little brown sugar in it. Its my husbands favorite meal that I make and my 3 year old gobbles it up as well!
I love many meal that can please the whole family! So much easier than trying to throw together 3 different meals
Wow that is so simple and I bet it is really good. I could trick my boyfriend into eating better!
That looks sooo tasty!! I LOVE meatloaf. And I love that it can still taste great even when you make it healthier
Definitely ketchup!
That looks SO good. I love meatloaf
Agreed! It’s not meatloaf without ketchup!
Hate Ketchup! Growing up my brother would put it on everything….so gross!
it’s the opposite in our house… my husband doesn’t like meatloaf, and i’m a huge fan! that being said, i don’t make it very often. when i do though, i always use a recipe that my stepmom made us growing up. it also uses ground turkey and is much lighter. i love it! i actually prefer it to meatloaf using ground beef. and i love ketchup with my meatloaf! i just love ketchup in general though.
I love ketchup too! My husband always asks me if I am having fries with ketcup, or ketchup with fries! lol
I am a meatloaf girl and load the ketchup on for me
I’ve actually been wanting to make meat loaf for quite a while. It’s been years since I’ve made it. Thanks for sharing
You are welcome! I haven’t had it in forever either, but it sounded like the perfect easy meal to mix up the usuals!
Ground turkey tacos are my fav… so easy and so delicious!
Me too! I make a lot of taco meat using turkey instead of beef!
I haven’t had meatloaf in so long! And I’ve never tried it with turkey – it sounds good, though! And I prefer mine with BBQ sauce
Oh yum! I am sure bbq sauce is just as delish!
