Ingredienser
  

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup plain breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 small yellow onion, finely grated
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 3 medium carrots, peeled and cut into thick pieces
  • 2 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 medium parsnip, peeled and cut into thick pieces
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth

fremgangsmåte
 

  • In a large bowl, stir together the breadcrumbs and milk. Let them stand for 2 minutes so the breadcrumbs absorb the milk.
  • Add the ground turkey, egg, grated onion, parsley, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently with your hands or a fork just until combined. Avoid packing the mixture tightly, which can make the meatloaf dense.
  • Shape the mixture into a compact oval loaf. In a small bowl, stir together the ketchup and Dijon mustard, then spread the glaze over the top and sides of the loaf.
  • Arrange the carrots, potatoes, and parsnip in an even layer in the slow cooker. Pour the chicken broth around the vegetables, keeping it off the glazed meatloaf. Set the loaf on top of the vegetables.
  • Cover and cook on low until the meatloaf is cooked through and the vegetables are tender. Check that the center of the loaf reaches 165°F.
  • Lift the meatloaf carefully onto a cutting board and let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with the root vegetables and spoon a little cooking broth over them if desired.

Cut the vegetables into similarly sized pieces so they soften at the same rate, and keep the meatloaf resting while you portion them for serving. If the loaf is delicate, use a wide spatula to lift it from the slow cooker.
