How to Make Southwest-Style Turkey Meatloaf
A nice way to add whole grains into protein dishes—such as meatloaf, hamburgers, and meatballs—is to use quick-cooking oats instead of regular bread crumbs. The fiber in the oats has been shown to help lower cholesterol.
Complete your Plate: For a classic "meat-and-potatoes" meal, pair with Mashed Red Potatoes. Add a Green Salad with Orange and Avocado for a balanced meal.

Step-By-Step Instructions:
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Coat a 9 × 5-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray.
-
Add all of the remaining ingredients to a large bowl. Gently mix the ingredients until well combined.
-
Spoon the mixture into the prepared loaf pan, using the back of the spoon or a spatula to even out the top. Place the loaf pan in the oven and bake until a thermometer inserted into the center of the meatloaf reads 165°F, 1 hour.
