A healthy and flavorful turkey meatloaf inspired by Jamie Oliver—moist, herby, and topped with a tangy tomato glaze. Perfect for family dinners or meal prep.
1½ lbs ground turkey
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 small carrot, grated
1 celery stalk, finely diced
1 cup breadcrumbs
1 egg, beaten
2 tbsp chopped parsley
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 tbsp olive oil
Glaze:
¼ cup ketchup
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a tray or grease a loaf pan.
Sauté onion, garlic, carrot, and celery in olive oil until soft. Cool slightly.
In a large bowl, mix turkey, vegetables, breadcrumbs, egg, parsley, Worcestershire, salt, and pepper.
Form into a loaf and place on tray or in pan. Brush with oil.
Mix glaze ingredients and spread half on the loaf.
Bake for 35–45 minutes, until internal temp is 165°F.
Brush with remaining glaze halfway through.
Rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Add zucchini or mushrooms for moisture. Use gluten-free breadcrumbs if needed. Great for leftovers.
