Sarting to feel like fall "comfort food"

Hello fellow foodies and food lovers.  Summer is not quite over yet but slowly starting to feel like fall.  Our adventure today/night is all about how to have that warm comfort without breaking out the fleece.  This is also another recipe that shows you that you can have your favorite comfort food, without giving up on health altogether.

Turkey Mini Meat Loaves
cooking spray
1/2 cup chopped onion
3 tablespoons dry breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon fresh cracked pepper
8 ounces ground turkey breast
1 large egg white
1/4 teaspoon hot sauce

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Heat a small skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add onion to pan; sauté 5 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from heat; cool slightly.
  • Combine onion, breadcrumbs, and next 7 ingredients (through egg white) in a large bowl. Stir in 2 tablespoons ketchup. Spoon about 1/2 cup meat mixture into each of 3 muffin cups coated with cooking spray; place muffin tin on a baking sheet. Combine remaining 1 tablespoon ketchup and hot pepper sauce in a small bowl. Brush ketchup mixture over meat loaf tops. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes or until a thermometer registers 165°.
(Note to serve more just double the recipe and bake for 45-50 min.  Also if your store does not have ground turkey use ground chicken as a replacement).

There you have it our game plan/menu for tonight's adventure.  Pictures and review to come later on tonight, until next time.  Remember to play with your food and have fun.
