growing up it was always meatloaf
0:08
Mondays in my house but unlike mom's
0:10
meatloaf this one's made with extra lean
0:13
beef and it's loaded with colorful
0:14
vegetables not the Bacon fat in grease
0:17
so let's get started first we're going
0:19
to combine our wet ingredients into a
0:21
large mixing bowl we're going to add two
0:22
tablespoons of fat-free milk
0:25
one tablespoon of ketchup
0:29
one tablespoon of Dijon mustard
0:32
and two large egg whites
0:35
this meatloaf is so delicious and
0:37
because we're making it with extra Leaf
0:39
beef it only has 178 calories per
0:41
serving or I think moms with more like
0:43
500 or something so next I'm going to
0:46
add those yummy vegetables we've got a
0:48
half a cup of chopped onion
0:51
one quarter cup of roasted red pepper
0:56
half a cup of chopped broccoli
1:00
you can use frozen if you're in a hurry
1:02
now you know I want to point out
1:04
something to you some people think the
1:06
turkey meatloaf is healthier it's not
1:08
necessarily when you cook with 93 lean
1:11
beef there's less saturated fat and less
1:14
calories than most turkey meatloafs plus
1:16
this one tastes like the real deal but
1:19
if you simply prefer the taste of turkey
1:21
make sure you buy lean ground turkey
1:23
breast which is 99 that through so now
1:27
I'm going to add the meat to The Mixing
1:28
Bowl along with some bread crumbs I've
1:30
made by pulsing one slice of whole grain
1:32
bread in the food processor
1:36
crumbs now we want to just mix this all
1:40
together I'm just going to get in here
1:41
and get my hands dirty we're going to
1:45
and then we're going to add the
1:46
flavorful herbs we've got one tablespoon
1:49
of basil and a third a cup of chopped
1:55
and I just want to make this so it's
1:57
nice and Incorporated but you don't want
1:58
to overwork the meat so now what I'm
2:03
is I'm going to gently I'm going to turn
2:05
this out into a loaf pan which I've had
2:07
sprayed with cooking spray
2:11
well that's a nice looking meatloaf
2:13
oops got a little fall over the side
2:15
here just going to Pat it down
2:19
that okay and then we're just going to
2:21
top it with a little extra ketchup
2:28
go and we're going to pop this into a
2:30
350 degree oven for about an hour
2:37
so you can call Mom now and tell her to
2:40
ditch that old recipe
