{Meegan’s Italian Turkey Meatloaf}
Pre-heat oven to 375*
Serves 6.
Bind together in a large mixing bowl:
1 lb ground turkey
1 small onion chopped
1/2 cup red pepper sliced
1/2 cup green bell pepper
1/2 of 1 zucchini (sliced thin)
1 Tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 tsp Mrs Dash (original)
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 egg
1/2 cup raw oats
1/2 can tomato paste
Make a loaf shape and place in a loaf pan or in a pie tin. If you choose to bake your Italian Turkey Meatloaf in a pie tin, be sure to add 1/2-1 inch of water for your meat loaf to cook in. (This is an old family trick that my mom used when we didn’t own a loaf pan.) It works fabulously.
Bake for 40 minutes. At that time take out of the oven and “frost” the Italian Turkey Meatloaf with the other half can tomato paste. Bake 10 more minutes.
Once your Italian Turkey Meatloaf has rested sprinkle with fresh Parmesan cheese.
Best served with brown jasmine rice, and roasted asparagus. Although a serving of homemade pasta on the side would be a perfect pairing.
This Italian Turkey Meatloaf is also great the next day as a meatloaf sandwich. That is how my hubby likes it best.

I have never thought of adding zucchini to meatloaf, sounds great. I love that you used oats instead of bread crumbs, making it a gluten free meal. Thanks!
Thank you, Shelia. I hope you try the recipe soon.
Have a beautiful day!
O. M. G. This looks amazing! I am a huge meatloaf fan (ha, ha, I love Meatloaf’s music, too, so this made me giggle). I have to show this to my husband. He will love it. Cute blog, my first time here.
Thank you! And I love your joke! Have a wonderful day.
I love the idea of Italian meatloaf!
Thank you so much. I love your tablescape.
I love that you used turkey in your meatloaf. I can’t wait to try your version for my husband. He’s such a meatloaf lover.
Thank you, Alli. I am so glad you were here. It is always fun to see you here.
Meegan,
I’ve been thinking about this meatloaf all week. I think it’s going to make an appearance at my house this weekend.
