My Favorite Pork Turkey Meatloaf

A moist and hearty meatloaf combining pork and turkey for a leaner option. Full of savory herbs and spices, it’s comfort food with a healthier twist that doesn’t skimp on flavor.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound ground turkey 1 pound ground pork
  • 1 tablespoon cooking oil 1 carrot, minced
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, minced 1/2 onion, minced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/3 cup thawed frozen chopped spinach
  • 1/2 cup bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup wheat germ (optional) 2 eggs, room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon ketchup

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  2. Set the ground turkey and ground pork out at room temperature to warm slightly.
  3. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook the carrot, bell pepper, onion, garlic, and spinach in the heated oil until soft; set aside to cool.
  4. Mix together the turkey, pork, bread crumbs, wheat germ, eggs, 2 tablespoons ketchup, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add the vegetable mixture and continue to mix until evenly combined; shape into a loaf; lay on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Whisk together the honey and 1 tablespoon ketchup in a small bowl; spread over the meatloaf.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, 60 to 70 minutes; remove to a serving platter and allow to rest 5 minutes before slicing.

Sumac & Zaatar Roasted Monkfish

Sumac and za’atar is such a wonderfully tangy and earthy combination. I make this all the time, especially with monkfish, as it has such a meaty texture. This dish needs something with a little freshness to break up the thickness of flavor, so I always serve it with my delicious Salatet Fattoush on the side. The reason this recipe works so well is that you have the sharpness of sumac and lemon against the smokiness and spice of paprika and chile. These flavors work really well in a number of dishes, but especially with fish.
