Diabetic Turkey Meat Loaf

 

This very tasty Turkey Meat Loaf has been adapted from the extremely popular ‘ Chicken Meat Loaf ‘ recipe from this Blog. I have substituted 2% fat Turkey mince and made other small adjustments. 

IT IS EXTREMELY EASY TO MAKE. Using  TMX, FOOD PROCESSOR OR BY HAND.

Ingredients

500 grams, 2% Turkey mince. 

1 medium size carrot

1 medium size onion

1 slice of Wholemeal bread, made into breadcrumbs, crust included.

60 mls milk, any type

1/4 cup tomato sauce

2 eggs, large

1 large clove of fresh garlic.

3/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

TOPPING

3/4 cup tomato salsa

1/3 cup brown sugar

8 grams of mustard powder.

 METHOD 

Place onion, carrot and garlic in TMX bowl, chop speed 5/ 5 seconds.  Or chop finely by hand.

Add all remaining ingredients, EXCEPT TOPPING

Mix on reverse, speed 4/, 15 seconds. Scrape down. Mix 5 seconds, speed 4. 

Place into a  lined baking dish, approximately 26 x 16 cm, form into a slightly domed shape. 

Mix topping ingredients together  and spread over Turkey meat loaf. 

Bake 180 FF degrees, 45 minutes , or until no pink remains.  Or internal temperature reaches 165 f degrees on a thermometer.
