Turkey meatloaf is a lighter twist on the classic comfort food, made primarily with ground turkey instead of higher-fat ground beef or pork. Common ingredients include breadcrumbs, onions, garlic, eggs, and seasonings such as parsley, thyme, or paprika, all blended into a moist loaf. Often topped with ketchup or a tangy tomato glaze, it’s baked until golden and hearty. With roots in American cuisine, turkey meatloaf has gained popularity as a healthy alternative due to its lean protein content, lower fat levels, and versatility. It provides essential nutrients like iron and B vitamins, and can also be customized to include vegetables like zucchini or carrots for added fiber. While turkey is naturally lean, be mindful that heavy add-ins like cheese or sugary sauces may increase calories. Turkey meatloaf pairs well with whole grains and steamed vegetables for a balanced meal.
