Ingredients

• 1 pound ground turkey
• 1 pound ground beef (85% lean)
• 1 cup breadcrumbs
• 0.5 cup milk
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 large egg
• 0.33 cup ketchup
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 cup ketchup (for topping)
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, chopped onion, minced garlic, and egg.

Step 3

Add the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, dried parsley, salt, black pepper, and paprika to the bowl. Mix everything together thoroughly using your hands or a wooden spoon until well combined.

Step 4

Transfer the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan. Press it down evenly to create a solid, compact shape.

Step 5

In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup (for topping), brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar to make the glaze.

Step 6

Spread the glaze evenly on top of the meatloaf using the back of a spoon.

Step 7

Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 160°F (71°C).

Step 8

Once cooked, let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes in the pan before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.

Step 9

Carefully remove the meatloaf from the pan, slice it into portions, and serve. Pair with mashed potatoes, green beans, or your favorite side dish for a complete meal.
