My go-to meatloaf recipe makes enough for 8 servings: that’s dinner plus lunch the next day or a second dinner!

Turkey Meat Loaf
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 cup finely chopped onion
1 carrot, chopped
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup ketchup, divided
2 tablespoons brown mustard
1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 large egg white, lightly beaten
1 pound lean ground turkey (7% fat)
1 pound ground turkey breast
- Preheat oven to 400F. Coat a baking sheet or the bottom of a broiler pan with cooking spray.
- Heat the oil in a medium sized nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and carrot and cook, stirring occasionally, 5-6 minutes, or until the carrot is soft. Transfer to a large bowl.
- Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, 1/2 cup of the ketchup, mustard, breadcrumbs, salt, black pepper, and lightly beaten egg white; mix thoroughly.
- Use a fork to cut in the two kinds of ground turkey. Mix thoroughly, but do not overwork.
- Transfer the mixture to the baking sheet and form into a 10 x 5-inch loaf. Spoon the remaining 1/2 cup of ketchup over the top and sides of the loaf, spreading it fairly evenly.
- Bake until an instant read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the center reads 165F, about 70 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.
