Make this easy, and craveable ground turkey meatloaf!
With the price of groceries seemingly going up every day, I’m always looking for ways to save money. That’s why I am increasingly using more ground turkey in the meals I make. But here’s the problem with ground turkey – it is not really flavorful. But here’s a way I’ve jazzed it up in meatloaf that is craveable.
I never thought of using plum sauce in meatloaf, or with ground turkey for that matter. But as I was pulling this craveable turkey meatloaf recipe together, I happened to open my fridge and I saw the jar of plum sauce sitting there and I was like, why not? I think it adds an interesting twist on an otherwise average turkey meatloaf. If you don’t have plum sauce, you could probably substitute ketchup or barbecue sauce if you have it. But this easy turkey meatloaf recipe won’t be the same without the plum sauce.
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1(10 ounce) can rotel diced tomatoes with lime and cilantro
- 1 small onion, diced
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 1/3 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons Chinese plum sauce
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon steak seasoning
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 3 strips bacon (optional)
I’ve made this dish (turkey meatloaf) with and without bacon. I will promise you that the flavor from the bacon drips down into the turkey and gives it lovely flavor. But if you are watching fat and calories, you can easily omit the bacon from this turkey meatloaf and it will still be full of flavor, thanks to the cilantro and cumin (two things I love!).
In our house, we try to keep our carb intake low. So, while this meatloaf is shown with mac and cheese, that’s not usually something we would have with our turkey meatloaf. Instead, we usually skip the carbs, and just have a green vegetable with our protein for dinners at home. The first time I made this, I just served my easy turkey meatloaf with some green peas. But on another occasion I made collards as my husband loves them. Either way, the turkey meatloaf is the star of the show here!
Interesting one,i saw your article in google, very interesting to read.I have seen this blog,its really nice to read and has more informative information.
I’ve been to H. Harper a few times mainly due to it’s proximity to my house. On multiple occasions, I’ve found the bar staff to be rude, seeming as if they don’t notice you. I agree that their drinks are good (but not by far the best in the city,) so waiting a little while is fine, but a seemingly bad attitude of service by the staff, is not.
