Turkey Burger Base Recipe
1 1/4 lb of ground turkey
1/4 cup finely chopped green onion
1/4 cup finely chopped carrot
1/4 cup finely chopped organic zucchini
1/4 tsp Celtic sea salt
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp onion powder
1/8 tsp fresh-ground pepper
Add to the above Base Recipe:
1 large pastured egg
1/4 tsp Italian herb seasoning
1/4 tsp dried parsley (or 1/2 tbsp fresh)
2 tbsp ketchup
1/2 cup homemade breadcrumbs (recipe also includes GF option)

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat a skillet to medium-high heat and add about one tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté finely chopped onion, carrot, zucchini and garlic until soft (about 3-4 minutes). 2. Place ground turkey in large mixing bowl and add the veggies to the turkey and allow to cool a minute. Then add all of the remaining ingredients. 3. Using your hands, combine all ingredients until well incorporated. 4. Shape into a loaf and place into a well-oiled loaf pan. 5. Bake uncovered for 25 minutes. Remove from oven and top with the yummy ketchup-maple topping (see note below). 6. Return to oven and continue baking for another 20-25 minutes, until meatloaf is cooked through. 7. Ketchup-Maple Meatloaf Topping: In a small dish, whisk together 3/4 cup ketchup with two tablespoons of pure maple syrup. Spread on top of meatloaf as directed in recipe above.
