Meatloaf

I liked the turkey meatloaf from Whole Foods; but I did not like the broccoli. Rich also called me at work on the first day to ask me what the slug was in his lunch. He has not actually said so, but I am guessing he did not like the sweet potato. That being said I decided to make my own turkey meatloaf. 4.5 oz makes 3 blocks of protein. I think it came out pretty well. Here is the recipe:

3 cups chopped yellow onions (2 large onions) 2 tablespoons good olive oil 2 teaspoons kosher salt 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (1/2 teaspoon dried) 1/3 cup Worcestershire sauce 3/4 cup chicken stock 1 1/2 teaspoons tomato paste 5 pounds ground turkey breast 1 1/2 cups plain dry bread crumbs 3 extra-large eggs, beaten 3/4 cup ketchup Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. In a medium saute pan, over medium-low heat, cook the onions, olive oil, salt, pepper, and thyme until translucent, but not browned, approximately 15 minutes. Add the Worcestershire sauce, chicken stock, and tomato paste and mix well. Allow to cool to room temperature. Combine the ground turkey, bread crumbs, eggs, and onion mixture in a large bowl. Mix well and shape into a rectangular loaf on an ungreased sheet pan. Spread the ketchup evenly on top. Bake for 1 1/2 hours until the internal temperature is 160 degrees F. and the meatloaf is cooked through. ~bea
