Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Eggs
  • 3/4 c Milk
  • 2/3 c Italian breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 Yellow onion, chopped
  • 1/4 c Italian parsley, chopped
  • 1 tsp Kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp Dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp Coarse ground pepper
  • 1.5 lbs Ground Turkey (I prefer 85/15 here)
  • 1/2 c Ketchup
  • 2 Tbsp Light brown sugar
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard

Method
 

  1. Mix first 8 ingredients together, making sure to incorporate the eggs fully.
  2. Add the ground turkey and mix, but let's not overmix or it will become too firm and lose its texture.
  3. On a baking sheet, put in a 350F oven for 40-45 minutes. Check the temperature in the middle. You're looking for 160F degrees.
  4. Mix the ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard together and top the cooked meatloaf with it. I like to use a pastry brush for this part, but you could just spoon it on and spread it out, too.
  5. Pop back in the oven for another 10 minutes.
  6. This is key: Take out of the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

A family favorite I've made for over 15 years.  It's very forgiving and flexible: use beef or ground turkey; use dried thyme or Italian seasoning. I usually make another batch of the glaze for dipping on the table!
