Recipe: Southwest Turkey Meatloaf

Southwest Turkey Meatloaf

 

 

1 Yellow Onion, Diced

4 Green Onions, Diced

3 Cloves of Garlic, Minced (I used the Minced Garlic in a Jar)

1 1/4lb. Ground Turkey (I used one package)

1/4 cup of Italian Dry Bread Crumbs

1/4 cup of Milk

1 Egg, Beaten

1/2 cup of Corn (Frozen or Canned)

1/2 cup of Black Beans (Rinsed & Drained)

1/2 cup Pico de Gallo

1 Tablespoon Fresh Cilantro

1/2 Teaspoon Kosher Salt

Few Twist of Black Pepper

Butter/Oil for Sauteing

 

Saute onions until golden brown. Add garlic to the onions and cook for one more minute. Set aside to cool. 

 

Soak breadcrumbs in milk for 1 minute. Beat egg. Add egg and soaked breadcrumbs to ground turkey. Add cooled vegetables and all remaining ingredients. Mix in a large bowl until combined.

Divide into equal mounds. You can either use a petite loaf pan or a cupcake pan. I used the cupcake pan because I didn't have a petite loaf pan. 

Bake for 45 minutes at 350 degrees. These are said to freeze well either cooked or uncooked.
