Mini Salsa Meat Loaf



My sister Kat made this with me and she was right, it was delicious, quick and healthy.  It makes four little single serving size loaves and as is almost always the case with meat loaf, it heats up wonderfully the next day or two.  I served it with green beans and if I'd had potatoes, mashed would be nice, though the original author serves it with Spanish rice.


Ingredients:
1lb 99% fat-free ground turkey breast
1/2 cup salsa ( I used Sabra Roasted Garlic Salsa)
1/2 cup Italian-seasoned bread crumbs
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 egg, lightly beaten
3 cloves garlic, minced
salt and pepper
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Spray a baking sheet with non-stick spray then set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, salsa, bread crumbs, cheddar cheese, egg, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined.
  3. Divide mixture into 4 equal-sized portions then form into loaves and place on prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20-24 minutes, or until no longer pink in the center, then let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
