Whenever I think of having meatloaf for supper, I think of an older generation, lots of grease, and it it warmed your tummy with lots of calories. But you can make this traditional dish much healthier in today's world and you can even make it Gluten Free.
Ingredients
1 1/4 pounds ground turkey
1 small onion, grated
1/3 cup breadcrumbs
1 stalk celery, finely chopped
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup ketchup
1 Tbs. chopped fresh parsley
Salt & ground pepper
2 tsp. soy sauce
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a 9 X 5 inch loaf pan with cooking spray. Put the turkey, onion, breadcrumbs, celery, egg, 2 Tbs. ketchup, parsley, 1/2 tsp. salt and pepper to taste in a bowl. Mix with your hands until just combined, hen transfer to the prepared pan.
- Combine the remaining 1/4 cup plus 2 Tbs. ketchup with soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl; spread 2 Tbs. of the ketchup mixture over the meatloaf. Bake until the top begins to brown, about 30 minutes, then spread the remaining ketchup mixture over the meatloaf and continue baking until browned and a thermometer inserted into the center registers 165 degrees F, 15 to 20 more minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.

We did make mashed potatoes and peas with our new meatloaf recipe, because that is just what you normally have with meatloaf..right? But you could have it with buttered noodles as well. If you are on the fence about meatloaf, or even if you've written it off entirely as something you'd never try, give this one a shot.
Enjoy this, my friends! It is a KEEPER at our house.
For the Gluten Free meatloaf, substitute the breadcrumbs for with crushed Rice Chex
