Recently I had the opportunity to spend some time on a turkey farm in northwest Iowa then later that afternoon the farmer invited me over for a turkey feast with his family. Among the dishes we devoured was Easy Salsa Turkey Meatloaf, and it. Was. Divine. The meatloaf was the first thing I smelled after walking into their kitchen prompting me to immediately ask for the recipe. I was pumped to learn it couldn’t be easier to make so I gave it an IGE spin and came up with Mini Salsa Turkey Meatloaves to share with you!
99% fat-free ground turkey breast is mixed with salsa, cheddar cheese, an egg, garlic, and spices then shaped into mini loaves and baked. We’re talking 30 minutes from fridge to table, and everybody gets their own little loaf. Too sweet! You would never guess these mini meatloaves were made with lean ground turkey. They are so juicy from the salsa, which not only keeps them from drying out in the oven, but also gives the dish a ton of flavor. You will totally dig these!
Start the Mini Salsa Turkey Meatloaves with 1lb 99% fat-free ground turkey breast.
Next add 1/2 cup gluten free bread crumbs plus 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese. I love how the cheese forms little cheddar pockets all throughout the meatloaves and creates a crispy, savory crust on the bottom.
Next add 1/2 cup salsa plus 3 cloves minced garlic, 1 whisked egg, salt, and pepper.
Mix with your hands until just combined then divide the turkey mixture into 4 sections, shape into mini loaves, and then place onto a nonstick sprayed baking sheet.
Bake the mini meatloaves for 20-24 minutes at 425 degrees then serve, slice, and enjoy!
I like serving Mini Salsa Turkey Meatloaves with a side of Mexican-Style Rice, though however you serve it, I just know you’ll love each and every bite. Enjoy!
