fremgangsmåte
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, rolled oats, minced chipotle peppers, diced onion, minced garlic, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix with your hands until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  • Shape the mixture into a loaf about 8 inches long and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 45 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  • While the meatloaf bakes, make the salad. In a medium bowl, stir together the black beans, corn, diced red bell pepper, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and olive oil.
  • Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve slices with a scoop of the black bean salad on the side.

Let the meatloaf rest before slicing so the oats can finish absorbing moisture and the slices hold together. If you want less heat, use only one chipotle pepper and remove the seeds. The salad can be made a few hours ahead and stored in the fridge, which actually improves the flavor as the lime and spices meld.
