Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup quick-cooking oats
  • 1/2 cup skim milk
  • 1 medium onion, peeled
  • 2 pounds ground turkey breast
  • 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 (8-ounce) can tomato sauce

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In a small bowl, stir together the oats and milk. Thinly slice 1/4 of the onion and set aside. Finely chop the remaining onion. In a large bowl combine the turkey, oat mixture, chopped onion, bell pepper, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, salt and a few grinds of pepper. Mix just until well combined.

Transfer the mixture to a 9 by 13-inch baking dish and shape into a loaf about 5 inches wide and 2 1/2 inches high. Pour the tomato sauce over the meatloaf and sprinkle with the sliced onions. Bake for about 1 hour or until an instant-read thermometer registers 160 degrees.F.

Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 to15 minutes before slicing.

    Have made this recipe with the ground turkey and just made it with ground beef, it is a very moist meatloaf and it does take longer to cook, so i bump up the oven temp to 375 and bake 1 1/4 hours and let set the ten minutes, and it is always perfect. My only additions are chili powder and tumeric, my go to healthy spices I always use to bump up flavors and health benefits.....and have always made my meatloafs with oatmeal anyway, but never soaked them in milk ahead of time, it is a great recipe......

    We love this meatloaf. My boyfriend, who doesn't like veggies or ground turkey adores it. The red pepper gives it a nice flavor. I made it exactly as stated, and wouldn't change a thing. We did not miss the bread crumbs; the loaf is nice and dense, and extremely moist. I made it with Ellie's Smashed Potatos w/Sour Cream and Chives, another delicious healthy dish. I will be serving this again! I did have to cook it longer than called for, approx 25 minutes.
