Melissas Turkey Meatloaf Recipes

MEATLOAF WITH MUSTARD AND SOUR CREAM GRAVY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Line the glass loaf pan with the bacon, centering the strips lengthwise in the pan, letting the ends hang over the short edge.
• Lightly beat the eggs in a large bowl. Add the ketchup and sour cream and mix. Add the breadcrumbs, onions and garlic, stirring to incorporate, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Mix in the sausage, breaking it up to season the egg mixture evenly. Mix in the ground beef, using your hands to mix gently but thoroughly. Press the meatloaf mixture firmly into the loaf pan with the bacon, shaping the meat into a loaf shape. Unmold the meatloaf by turning the pan upside-down, and tapping the bottom to release the meatloaf. Tuck the bacon under the loaf, and place it bacon-side up on a foiled or parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until the meat registers 160 degrees F, 50 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with Mustard and Sour Cream Gravy.
• In a saucepan, heat the butter over medium heat, add the onions and saute until the onions are soft, about 6 minutes. Sprinkle the flour on top of the onions and cook for 1 minute, stirring. Turn up the heat to medium-high and whisk in the stock and 1/2 cup water. Cook at a simmer, whisking frequently, until the gravy begins to thicken. Turn off the heat and whisk in the sour cream, and then the mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Taste before adding salt and pepper. Serve on the meatloaf.

TURKEY MEATLOAF, TURKISH STYLE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet, add 2 tablespoons panko and sauté until panko is golden. Remove and reserve.
• Place walnuts, mint, parsley and basil in a food processor. Pulse until all are finely chopped. Remove and reserve. Without washing processor, turn on and drop garlic in through feed tube and process until minced. Stop, place onion and green pepper in processor and pulse until finely chopped.
• Add remaining oil to skillet and sauté garlic, onion and green pepper mixture over medium heat until soft but not brown. Remove from heat and stir in walnut mixture. Mix remaining panko with 1/2 cup water to soften and add. Place turkey in a large bowl, add contents of skillet and mix until well blended. Season with salt (at least 1 teaspoon) and pepper. Pack into a 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan. Spread sautéed panko on top and bake 1 hour 20 minutes.
• Serve hot or at room temperature, with yogurt on the side, or chill and serve cold, in pita with yogurt and cucumbers.
