Ingredients

• 2 pounds Ground turkey (93% lean)
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Rolled oats
• 0.25 cup Milk (any type, unsweetened)
• 1 medium Onion, finely diced
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 3 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.25 cup Ketchup (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a standard loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easier cleanup.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, eggs, rolled oats, and milk. Mix gently but thoroughly to combine.

Step 3

Add the diced onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, chopped parsley, salt, black pepper, and paprika to the bowl. Mix everything together until well blended, but avoid overmixing to keep the meatloaf tender.

Step 4

Transfer the meatloaf mixture into the prepared loaf pan. Press it down evenly and smooth out the top.

Step 5

If desired, spread the ketchup evenly over the top of the meatloaf for added flavor and moisture during baking.

Step 6

Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) using a meat thermometer.

Step 7

Once fully cooked, remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest in the pan for 5-10 minutes. This will help it hold its shape when sliced.

Step 8

Carefully remove the meatloaf from the pan, slice it into portions, and serve warm. Pair with roasted vegetables, a side salad, or sweet potato mash for a complete meal.
