TURKEY MEATLOAF SQUARES WITH SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Pierce the sweet potatoes all overwith a fork and microwave until tender, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Combine the turkey, onion, panko and egg in a bowl. Add half each of the ketchup, hoisin sauce and ginger and season with salt and pepper. Mix with your hands until just combined. Form into a 9-by-11-inch rectangle on the prepared baking sheet. Mix the remaining ketchup, hoisin sauce and ginger in a small bowl with 2 tablespoons water; brush over the meat. Bake until golden and cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes. Turn on the broiler and broil until the glaze is just caramelized, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Mix the butter, half of the scallions, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a small bowl. Split the potatoes and top with the scallion butter. Slice the meatloaf and serve with the potatoes. Sprinkle with the remaining scallions.

CLASSIC MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
• Combine the meatloaf mix, breadcrumbs, parsley, eggs, onion, garlic, 1/4 cup of the ketchup, 1 tablespoon of the Worcestershire, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large mixing bowl. Using your hands, mix together until well combined.
• Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet and form it into a compact oval-shaped loaf about 9 inches by 5 inches. Bake the meatloaf for 30 minutes.
• Stir the brown sugar together with the remaining 1/4 cup ketchup and 1 teaspoon Worcestershire in a small bowl for the glaze. Brush the top and sides of the meatloaf all over with the glaze.

Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
