Turkey Meat Loaf With Sun-dried Tomatoes Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Darbar / All my dishes 6 months ago An old standard gets made-over with ground turkey instead of beef; sautéed vegetables and sun-dried tomatoes add nutrition and flavor. Serve with mashed potatoes, some green beans and dinner rolls. This one is a keeper! My kids requested that I make... More Prep:15m Cook:60m Servings:8	Darbar

Ingredients

1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil

1 large onion, chopped

3 celery stalks, chopped

2 cloves garlic, crushed or minced

1 cup finely shredded or minced carrots

1 1/2 pounds ground turkey

1 1/2 cups fresh breadcrumbs made from soft white bread (or 1 cup store-bought)

2/3 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes drained & chopped fine

1/2 red bell pepper, small dice

1/2 cup milk

2 eggs

2 teaspoons dried rubbed sage

2 teaspoons dried oregano

1/2 tsp. of crushed red pepper flakes

1 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons ground pepper

BBQ sauce (I use Sweet Baby Ray's)

Directions

Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease 9x5x3-inch glass loaf pan. Heat oil in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add onion; sauté 5 minutes. Add celery, garlic and carrots; sauté until vegetables are very tender, about 15 minutes longer. Transfer to large bowl.

Add all remaining ingredients except BBQ sauce to vegetables in bowl. Mix thoroughly. Transfer to prepared pan. Bake 1 hour. Brush with BBQ sauce, and bake until thermometer inserted into center registers 165°F, about 15 minutes longer. Cool 5 minutes. Slice and serve.

My new thing is to make a double batch, slice and freeze what's left in individual servings, with wax paper between them, so the kids can make meat loaf sandwiches when I can't cook for them.
