Ingredienser
  

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup plain breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup finely diced yellow onion
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/3 cup marinara sauce, divided
  • 1 medium zucchini, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Heat the oven to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, egg, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, onion, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and 2 tablespoons of the marinara. Mix gently until everything is just combined.
  • Shape the mixture into a compact loaf in the center of the prepared baking sheet. Avoid packing it too firmly, which can make the meatloaf dense.
  • Toss the zucchini and red bell pepper with the olive oil. Arrange the vegetables around the meatloaf in a single layer.
  • Bake until the meatloaf reaches 165°F in the center and the vegetables are tender, about 35 to 45 minutes. Spread the remaining marinara over the top of the loaf during the final 10 minutes of baking.
  • Let the meatloaf rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with the roasted vegetables.

merknader

Cut the zucchini and bell pepper into similar-sized pieces so they roast evenly. If the vegetables are tender before the meatloaf is done, transfer them to a serving dish and return the loaf to the oven until it reaches 165°F. Leftovers reheat well with a spoonful of marinara to keep the turkey moist.
