Phase II recipe As one review indicated, this is a bit on the bland side. For those of you not watching your salt intake, the flavor is improved by using tomato paste with the salt included. This is not a recipe to impress dinner guests, but an easy healthy weekday recipe. Its a good way to eat zucchini without realizing you are eating it. Ingredients:
1 (6 ounce) can no-added-salt tomato paste |
1/2 cup dry red wine |
1/2 cup water |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1/2 teaspoon dried basil |
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
16 ounces ground turkey breast |
1 cup oatmeal |
1/4 cup liquid egg substitute |
1/2 cup zucchini, shredded |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350. Combine the tomato paste, wine, water, garlic, basil, oregano, and salt in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Simmer, uncovered for 15 minute Set aside.
2. Combine the turkey, oatmeal, egg substitute, zucchini, and 1/2 cup of the tomato mixture ina large bowl. Mix well. Shape into a loaf and place into an ungreased 8 x4 loaf pan. Bake for 45 minute Discard any drippings. Pour 1/2 cup of the remaining tomato mixture on top of the loaf. Bake for an additional 15 minute.
3. Place on a serving platter. Cool for 10 min before slicing. Serve the remaining tomato sauce on the side.
