Healthy Makeover Meatloaf





**triple-tested at the Good Housekeeping Research Institute**





In the kingdom of comfort food, meatloaf is royalty. Rich in carbs and fat, it fills you up and makes you feel good 鈥?that is, until your waistband becomes too tight. To get the comfort without the calories, try this version. We鈥檝e cut the fat in half by using 93 percent lean ground turkey instead of ground beef chuck, and opted for fat-free milk, which still keeps the loaf plenty tender. Even more soothing: You don鈥檛 have to give up the beloved ketchup glaze.





INGREDIENTS





1 tablespoon(s) olive oil


2 stalk(s) (medium-size) celery, finely chopped


1 small onion, finely chopped


1 clove(s) garlic, crushed with press


2 pound(s) lean ground turkey


3/4 cup(s) (from 1 1/2 slices bread) fresh whole wheat bread crumbs


1/3 cup(s) fat-free milk


1 tablespoon(s) Worcestershire sauce


2 large egg whites


1/2 cup(s) ketchup


1/2 teaspoon(s) salt


1/4 teaspoon(s) coarsely ground black pepper


1 tablespoon(s) Dijon mustard





DIRECTIONS





1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In 12-inch nonstick skillet, in oil, cook celery and onion on medium 10 minutes or until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally. Add garlic and cook 1 minute. Transfer vegetables to large bowl; cool slightly.


2. To bowl with vegetables, add turkey, bread crumbs, milk, Worcestershire sauce, egg whites, 1/4 cup ketchup, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper; mix with hands until well combined but not overmixed. In cup, mix Dijon and remaining 1/4 cup ketchup.


3. In 13'; by 9'; metal baking pan, shape meat mixture into 9'; by 5'; loaf. Spread ketchup mixture over top of loaf.


4. Bake meatloaf 55 to 60 minutes or until meat thermometer inserted in center reaches 160 degrees F. (Temperature will rise to 165 degrees F upon standing.)


5. Let meatloaf stand 10 minutes before removing from pan to set juices for easier slicing. Transfer meatloaf to platter and cut into slices to serve.

Ground turkey is already low in fat. To a couple of pounds of ground turkey add bread crumbs, packaged meat loaf seasoning, an egg, a small can of tomato paste. (If you like, about a cup of frozen vegetable: carrot, corn and peas mixed). After you shape on your baking sheet, or in your loaf pan, make a groove on top with your finger and fill with catsup. Bake at 350 for about 40 minutes covered with foil; then uncover and continue baking for another 10-15 minutes so the top gets crunchy and delicious.
