Turkey and Quinoa Meatloaf

Description

I always found turkey meatloaf recipes to be quite disappointing as the flavor is usually lacking as well as the texture. So I developed this recipe that has a great texture and a surprisingly good flavor — my brother couldn't even tell that it wasn't beef! The secret is the quinoa, which adds wonderful texture and is much nuttier than breadcrumbs.

Ingredient:

  • ½ cup water
  • ¼ cup quinoa
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 large clove garlic, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon water
  • 1 (20 ounce) package ground turkey
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce
  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
