Momosita's Amazing Ground Turkey/Chicken Meatloaf (With Hidden V image

This is a Awesome (!) meatloaf that I've adapted from a turkey meatloaf recipe from allrecipes.com. The original recipe calls for 2# of ground turkey, but this recipe is better with 1# of ground chicken and the added shredded veggies. You can use ground turkey, but I personally prefer the milder taste of ground chicken. This meatloaf tastes amazing and is a great way to incorporate more colorful veggies into your menu (or to hide them for picky little ones). Bon apetit!

Time 1h10m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup milk
1 cup panko breadcrumbs (use panko, regular breadcrumbs will make the loaf mushier)
1 lb ground chicken or 1 lb turkey
1 carrot, grated (approx 1/4 cup)
1/2 zucchini, grated (approx. 1/4 cup)
1/2 medium onion, diced
1 egg
1 cup mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese (or other cheese with a stronger flavor)
2 tablespoons salt-free Italian herb seasoning (I used Paul Prudhomme's Pasta Magic, but it has heat, so avoid if making for kids)
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
ketchup, to drizzle on top

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Place milk and breadcrumbs in a bowl and let soak while mixing the rest of the ingredients.
  • Pat and squeeze the shredded zucchini and carrots between paper towels to soak up extra moisture.
  • Place ground turkey, carrot, zucchini, onion, eggs and cheese in a large bowl and mix by hand.
  • Once the breadcrumbs have soaked up all of the milk, mix in the 2 Tbs of Italian seasoning and add to the turkey mixture.
  • Stir in the seasoned salt, pepper, and worcestershire.
  • Place mix in a greased loaf baking pan and drizzle the ketchup on top.
  • Bake at 400 degrees for 55minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 180 degrees. Remove from the oven, cover tightly with tin foil and let sit for 10 minutes.
