Turkey Meatloaf Brought to You By: CookingWithMelody.com
Ingredients:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees with the rack in the center. Line a large baking tray with foil and lightly brush with oil. Set aside. Heat 2-3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and carrots, sprinkle lightly with salt and sauté until very softened, about 7-10 minutes. Add garlic and sauté a few minutes longer. Remove from heat and cool completely. Combine ground turkey, breadcrumbs, basil, parmesan cheese, eggs, tomato sauce, worcestershire sauce, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 teaspoons salt, black pepper, and cooled onion mixture in a large mixing bowl. Divide mixture down the center and form two 10 x 5 x 2 inch rectangle loaves side by side (spaced apart) on oiled baking pan. Mix ketchup and barbeque sauce in a small bowl. Generously brush tops and all sides of loaves with sauce. Bake for 1 hour, or until juices run clear (internal temp should reach 160 degrees). (A pan of hot water under the meatloaf will keep the top from cracking.) Let meatloaves rest for about 5 minutes before serving. Serves 8-10 *To make bread crumbs. Remove crusts from a firm crusted white loaf of bread (about ½ loaf). Cube and pulse in a food processor until bread crumbs form. |
