Ingredients

• 1 pound Lean ground turkey (93% lean or more)
• 0.5 cup Old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 large Egg
• 0.5 cup Onion, finely chopped
• 0.5 cup Carrot, finely grated
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Tomato paste
• 1 tablespoon Low-sodium Worcestershire sauce
• 3 tablespoons Ketchup (low-sugar, optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a loaf pan.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, rolled oats, egg, onion, grated carrot, garlic, oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Add the tomato paste and Worcestershire sauce to the mixture. Use your hands or a spatula to gently mix all ingredients together until well combined. Avoid over-mixing, as this can make the meatloaf dense.

Step 4

Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet or loaf pan. Shape it into a loaf, approximately 8 inches long and 4 inches wide, if using a baking sheet.

Step 5

If desired, spread the ketchup evenly over the top of the loaf for additional flavor and moisture.

Step 6

Bake in the oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 165°F (74°C).

Step 7

Remove from the oven and let the meatloaf rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

Step 8

Serve warm with roasted vegetables, a side salad, or your favorite healthy sides.
