Last night the Bears ate mini turkey meat loaves… a la Cooking Light. Since I found out that my body does not like red meat last year, I have had to learn how to revamp some of my favorite meals – cheeseburger, meatloaf, meatballs, etc. Turkey and I are only friends once a month or so – too much turkey and I end up looking like a turkey : big belly and all.
NOTES: These are INCREDIBLE. It took everything in my power to not eat more than the serving size.
– Cooking spray
– 1/2 cup chopped onion
– 3 tablespoons dry breadcrumbs
– 1 tablespoon parsley
– 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
– 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
– 8 ounces ground turkey breast
– 1 large egg white
– 3 tablespoons ketchup, divided
– 1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco)
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Heat small skillet over medium heat. Sauté onion for 5 minutes.
3. In a medium bowl combine the onion, breadcrumbs, and the next 7 ingredients.
4. Stir in two tablespoons of ketchup.
4. Stir in two tablespoons of ketchup.
5. Spoon about 1/2 cup meat mixture into each of 3 muffin cups coated with cooking spray.
6. Combine remaining 1 tablespoon ketchup and hot pepper sauce in a small bowl. Brush ketchup mixture over meat loaf tops. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes.
If you need side suggestions: I had steamed veggies- Mr. Bear had some mashed taters.
