First of all I have to ask permission to my awesome sister-in-law to let me post this recipe. She was the one who gave it to me, the original recipe, which is delicious. But of course, as a dietitian and a mom looking for different ways to expand my daily menu I twicked it a little. It is a house favorite now, and you can change it up a bit and get great results!
1 lb of ground turkey (use at least 93% fat free)
1 package of dry onion soup mix (they have it in low sodium now)
1 egg (you may also use just the white, I alternate)
2 tbsp of ground flax seeds
2 tbsp of wheat germ ground
Spinach
Mix ground turkey with egg first, then add all other ingredients. The spinach should be cut up or ground. I found that using the frozen kind and putting it in the food processor for grinding really works. Once you have your meat "dough", put it in a baking dish making it into a meatloaf shape. Cook for 30-45 min at 375F.
My daughter enjoyed it and so did my husband! And of course you can vary the veggie. I have tried it with broccolli and cauliflower as well.
The recipe is a good source of lean protein, it is low fat and high in fiber and omega fatty acids.
Enjoy! And share with us if you changed something or added something else to the recipe, get creative.
