The BEST meatloaf



Recommended Posts

Just wanted to share a turkey meatloaf recipe I made this evening.

Meatloaf ingredients

1 pound lean ground turkey

1 can rotel(w/green chiles) drained

1 egg beaten

1/2 cup onion

about 1/2 cup quick cooking oats

Teaspoon of salt and pepper

Topping for meatloaf:

1/3 cup ketchup

1 tablespoon mustard

2 tablespoons brown sugar

Directions:

Mix all ingredients for meatloaf and place in a loaf pan. Mix topping ingredients and spread over meatloaf. Bake at 375 degrees for an hour!

This meatloaf is sooooo delicious and goes down so easily on my little pouch! I'll usually skip out on the ketchup topping. It tastes just as good without it!

I can't wait until I can eat food because I will try this out. I usually add salsa to my meatloaf to get the onions, peppers, and Tomato flavor. Thanks for sharing!

I have made this with the juice of the rotel drained and not drained. If you like a little spice to your meatloaf just add the juice from the can! It adds a little kick and gives the meatloaf a little more moisture!

Actually, I have found the best meatloaf...and I don't care much for meatloaf. My recipe is restaurant worthy but does take some culinary skills as it also "presents" beautifully which not all meatloaf does.

I won't bother with the whole recipe since it isn't particularly healthy but essentially you roll the meatloaf mixture out flat on a baking paper and put on a thin layer of sauteed mushrooms, onions and some cheese and roll it up like a jelly roll cake. You are supposed to top it with bacon, but that might be just too much. I bake it right on the paper on a baking sheet and it holds together and if you let it rest a few minutes, will slice nicely and look like the jelly roll cake. It tastes like the best cheeseburger you ever had. I make it about once a month and the kids devour it and I love it too.

My granddaughter is coming for a visit from Minneapolis. I may have to give your recipe a try. Her favorite thing I make is meatloaf and my recipe is delicious however I have some culinary chops and she has been learning from me since she was big enough to stand on a chair (3). This is one that would be a lot of fun for us to try.

Bacon would be a must! Yummy !

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
