Ingredients

  • 2 lb ground turkey I used 93% lean
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 medium onion finely chopped or grated
  • 1/2 cup grated carrot
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 3 Tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 3/4 cup whole wheat panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 Tbsp fresh parsley chopped

For the Tomato Glaze:

  • 1/4 cup tomato paste
  • 1 tsp white vinegar
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 Tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • Pinch of salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and spray a baking sheet (or loaf pan) with non-stick spray.
  • In a large bowl, combine all meatloaf ingredients together and mix until just combined, making sure not to over-mix.
  • Form the meat mixture into a loaf making sure that the loaf is even on all sides so that it cooks evenly and place on the baking sheet.  You could also press the meat mixture into a greased loaf pan.  Place the meatloaf in the oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes.
  • While the meatloaf is baking you can make the glaze.  In a small bowl, whisk together tomato paste, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, maple syrup, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper until smooth.  Set aside until meatloaf is ready.
  • Remove the meatloaf from the oven and spread the tomato glaze evenly all over the top.  Pop it back into the oven and bake for an additional 15 to 20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reads 165 degrees.
  • Remove from the oven and let the meatloaf sit for about 10 minutes to seal in all that flavor, serve and enjoy!

Notes

*Leftovers will last in your fridge in a sealed, airtight container for up to 3 to 4 days.
