Turkey Meatloaf w/ Mashed Potatoes and Cut Green Beans

Dinner Tonight: Turkey Meatloaf w/ Mashed Potatoes and Cut Green Beans




We got our first snowfall of the New Year! We have about 1 1/2" or so, not a lot just enough
to make it messy on the roads this morning. We were right on the line of heavier snow. Just 4 or 5 miles just North of us they have around 4" or 5" with higher amounts as go more North. With the Snow and Cold outside, it's time for a Comfort Food Dinner on the inside! I prepared a Turkey Meatloaf w/ Mashed Potatoes and Cut Green Beans.
  



I love this Turkey Meatloaf, I need to make it a lot much more often. I always use Jennie – O Extra Lean Ground Turkey Breast when I make it. To prepare the Meatloaf I'll need the following; 2 Tablespoons Blue Bonnet Light Stick Butter, 3 Cloves Garlic (Minced), 1 lb Jennie O Extra Lean Ground Turkey Breast, 1/2 Cup Progesso Italian Style Breadcrumbs, 1/4 Cup Egg Substitute (Egg Beaters), 1 1/4 Cups Hunt’s Ketchup, 4 Tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce, 3 Tablespoons Heinz 57 Sauce, 2 Teaspoons Smoked Cumin, 2 Teaspoons Onion Powder, 2 Teaspoons Ground Thyme, 2 Teaspoons Parsley, and Sea Salt and Black Pepper (To taste). 



Preheat your oven on 350 degrees.To start I melted butter in a medium skillet. Add the
Garlic in the melted butter for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. When done place mixture in a large bowl to cool for 5 minutes. In a large bowl combine the Turkey, Bread Crumbs, Egg Beater's, 1/4 cup of the Ketchup, 1 table spoon Worcestershire Sauce, Spices, and Garlic mixture. Mixing by hand is the best way to mix this, make sure all ingredients are well mixed. Next, press the meatloaf mixture into a loaf pan and form into a loaf, you can use any size loaf pan you want. Take the remaining Ketchup and add 3 Tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce and 3 Tablespoons Heinz 57 Sauce, and stir to well mixed. Add as a topping for the meatloaf. Baste the meatloaf with half of mixture and baste it again after 30 minutes of baking. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 50-55 minutes (Internal temperature should reach 165 degrees.) Remove from oven and let stand 5 minutes before serving. All the Ingredients come together to make one delicious Meatloaf. I really like the recipe for the Sauce! I also heated up some Bob Evans Mashed Potatoes and a small can of Del Monte Cut Green Beans. Not only is this a great dinner but with all the leftovers it's going to make some killer Meatloaf Sandwiches also! For dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Chocolate Pudding.
