Last month, I decided to make a variation of meatloaf that my mom used to make once in a while. It's basically regular meatloaf with spinach and cheese stuffed in the middle. Can we say delicious???
The Meatloaf
1 package of lean ground turkey (it's about 1.3-lb)
1/2 package McCormick Meatloaf Seasoning
All of the rest of the ingredients that are listed on the seasoning mix (divided in half, since the recipe calls for 2 lbs of meat)
Yes. I took a short cut. Sue me.
The Spinach
1 package of frozen spinach, cooked in the microwave for 5 minutes
about 1 T olive oil (Next time, I will not add this in - you don't need the extra oil)
Salt (a tiny tiny tiny amount)
Pepper
Garlic Powder
Onion Powder
The Method
- Mix together the meatloaf mix and divide it in half. Spread one half on a baking sheet (I usually put it in some kind of oval-rectangle).
- Spread the Spinach on top of the meatloaf, leaving a small border around the edge
- Sprinkle about 1/2 cup Part Skim Mozzarella Cheese across the top of the spinach (I used 1/4 cup and only put it on half, since my husband doesn't eat cheese)
- Bake at 350 for 45-50 minutes.
I made baked potatoes to go along with the meatloaf.
If divided into 8 servings: 5 Points Plus each.
If divided into 6 servings: 7 Points Plus each
If divided into 4 servings: 9 points plus each
I got the clearance to make it again. That means this one is a winner!
