Broccoli-Cheddar Stuffed Meatloaf
This was the main course for dinner last night. I gotta tell ya, it was pretty fantastic. I used fresh broccoli instead of frozen, so I only used about 8 oz instead. It turned out wonderfully.
INGREDIENTS:
1 package ground turkey (about 1 lb.)
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup quick-cooking oats
2 eggs (or 1 egg and 2 egg whites) slightly beaten
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 package (10 oz.) frozen chopped broccoli, thawed and well drained
1 cup shredded low-fat Cheddar cheese
Sweet 'n Spicy sauce:
1/2 cup catsup
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon dry mustard
Heat oven to 350°. Line a loaf pan, 9 x 5 inches, with foil; leave pieces overhanging edges of pan; spray with cooking spray. Prepare Sweet 'n Spicy sauce (see below); set aside. In a medium bowl, mix turkey, oats, onion, eggs, Worcestershire sauce and 2 tbsp. Sweet 'n Spicy sauce. Press half of turkey mixture into prepared pan. Form 1" indentation down center of mixture, leaving 1" thickness on all sides. Mix broccoli and cheese; spoon into indentation mounding up. Press remaining turkey mixture evenly over top, sealing edges. Bake for 1 hour. Let stand 15 minutes, then lift loaf from pan using foil hanging over edges. Peel foil away. Spoon remaining Sweet 'n Spicy sauce over top of loaf.
Makes 6 servings.
