Turkey Meatloaf

This recipe can also be made with lean ground beef, but I prefer turkey since there is less fat and cholesterol.  You can serve the meatloaf with sides of your choice or make into a warm or cold sandwich.  YUM!

Ingredients:

• 1  tablespoon  olive oil
• 1  large onion, chopped (1 1/4 cups)
• 1 green bell pepper, chopped (3/4 cup)
• 2  garlic cloves, minced
• 3/4  teaspoon  salt, divided
• 1/2  teaspoon  pepper, divided
• 1 1/2  tablespoons  Worcestershire sauce
• 1/3  cup  fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
• 3  tablespoons  ketchup, divided
• 1 3/4  pounds  ground turkey, 97% lean
• 3/4  cup  dry breadcrumbs
• 1  large egg, lightly beaten
• 1  large egg white, lightly beaten

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375°. Heat oil in medium skillet over medium heat. Add onion and bell pepper, cook stirring frequently, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; cook, stirring, 1 minute. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, broth, and 1 tablespoon ketchup; transfer mixture to a large bowl, and cool.
2. Add turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, egg white, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to mixture in bowl, and mix well. (Mixture will be very moist.)
3. Cover a baking sheet with aluminum foil, and coat lightly with cooking spray. Form the turkey mixture into a loaf, and place on the pan. Brush meatloaf evenly with remaining 2 tablespoons ketchup. Bake 1 hour or until thermometer inserted into center registers 170°. Let meatloaf stand 5 minutes before serving.
