Ingredienser
  

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup chunky salsa, divided
  • 1/2 cup canned black beans, drained, rinsed, and patted dry
  • 1/2 cup corn kernels, thawed if frozen
  • 1/4 cup finely diced red bell pepper
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Heat the oven to 375°F. Line a small baking sheet or loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the egg with 1/4 cup of the salsa. Stir in the breadcrumbs, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
  • Add the ground turkey, black beans, corn, red bell pepper, and cilantro. Mix gently just until combined. Avoid packing or overworking the mixture, which can make the loaf dense.
  • Shape the mixture into a compact loaf on the prepared baking sheet, or gently press it into the loaf pan. Spread the remaining 1/4 cup salsa over the top.
  • Bake until the center reaches 165°F on an instant-read thermometer, about 45 to 55 minutes. Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing so it holds together.

Pat the rinsed beans dry before mixing them in so their extra moisture does not soften the loaf too much. For a milder flavor, choose a mild salsa and adjust the chili powder to taste. Resting the meatloaf before slicing helps keep each piece tender and neat.
