For a lighter meatloaf, try making it with ground turkey. It will be so moist and delicious that it will become a favorite for your family. Ingredients:
1 cup chopped onion |
1 cup shredded carrots |
1/2 cup chopped celery |
1 tablespoon vegetable oil |
1-1/2 cups crushed saltines (about 45 crackers) |
3/4 cup ketchup, divided |
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley |
1 egg, lightly beaten |
4 teaspoons ground mustard, divided |
2 teaspoons salt |
2 teaspoons minced garlic |
1 teaspoon pepper |
2-1/2 pounds lean ground turkey |
2 tablespoons brown sugar |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, saute the onion, carrots and celery in oil until tender. In a large bowl, combine the onion mixture, cracker crumbs, 1/2 cup ketchup, parsley, egg, 2 teaspoons mustard, salt, garlic and pepper. Crumble turkey over mixture and mix well.
2. Shape into a loaf. Place in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1 hour.
3. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and remaining ketchup and mustard until smooth. Spoon over meat loaf. Bake 10-20 minutes longer or until meat is no longer pink and a meat thermometer reads 160°; drain. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing. Yield: 8 servings.
