So today I posted asking if anyone would be interested if I posted a new recipe each day and there was interest so here it goes. Tonight I made meatloaf.


2 Pounds Ground Turkey
1 package Dry Tomato Soup ( I could not find dry tomato soup anywhere so i just used campbells healthy request tomato soup)
1/4 cup onion, chopped
1 teaspoon Oregano
1 Teaspoon Light Salt
1 can Campbells Healthy Request Cream of Mushroom Soup
2 Egg Whites
1/2 cup bread crumbs, crushed fine
2 teaspoons spicy Mrs. Dash
2 Tablespoons Parsley
Pepper, to taste

Combine all ingredients and mold into a loaf shape and place in a covered baking dish sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees. Remove lid and return to the oven to brown for 15-20 minutes.

If serving with vegetables such as potatoes and carrots, place around meatloaf before cooking.

To add flavor you could top with 1/2 cup fat free barbecue sauce before returning to the oven to brown.

The nutrional info below is what mfp gave me when i entered the ingrediants.

Serves: 8
Calories: 168 per serving
Carbs: 14 per serving
Fat: 3 per serving
Protein: 20 per serving

For a little motivation I will also try to post a pic of each of these meals :-)

  • There's just something about white meatloaf that has me making the funniest face! I made my first turkey burger the other night. I THOUGHT I WOULD CHOKE! UGH -i t was horrible. Only BBQ could save it. Guess it's an acquired taste. Maybe I could do 50/50 hamburger/turkey...and sort of ease the gobbler into my recipes! Thanks for sharing. :) Judy

    yeah ground turkey definately tastes different but I think its mostly just how you cook it. The meatloaf was actually pretty good even though yeah I agree it looked kinda funny since it was white :-) but im sure it would be pretty good with the barbecue sauce on it.

    Healthy Baked Chicken Nuggets

    Servings: 4 • Serving Size: 1/4th of nuggets
    Calories: 164.9 • Fat: 4.6 g • Protein: 22.1 g • Carb: 7.7 g • Fiber: 0.9 g • Sugar: 0.1 g


    16 oz (2 large) skinless boneless chicken breasts, cut into even bit sized pieces
    salt and pepper to taste
    2 tsp olive oil
    6 tbsp whole wheat Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
    2 tbsp panko
    2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
    olive oil spray (I used my Misto)

    Preheat oven to 425°. Spray a baking sheet with olive oil spray.
    Put the olive oil in one bowl and the breadcrumbs, panko and parmesan cheese in another
    Season chicken with salt and pepper, then put in the bowl with the olive oil and mix well so the olive oil evenly coats all of the chicken
    Put a few chunks of chicken at a time into the breadcrumb mixture to coat, then on the baking sheet. Lightly spray the top with olive oil spray then bake 8 - 10 minutes. Turn over then cook another 4 - 5 minutes or until cooked though


    Baked Chipotle Sweet Potato Fries

    Servings: 2 • Serving Size: 1/2 • Old Points: 2 pts • Points+: 3 pts
    Calories: 108 • Fat: 4.7g • Protein: 1.1 g • Carb: 15.8 g • Fiber: 2.0 g

    1 sweet potato, (about 5" long) peeled and cut into 1/4" fries
    2 tsp olive oil
    sea salt
    ground chipotle chile
    garlic powder

    Preheat oven to 425°.
    In a medium bowl, toss sweet potatoes with olive oil, salt, garlic powder and chipotle chile powder
    Spread potatoes on a baking sheet. Avoid crowding so potatoes get crisp. Bake 15 minutes. Turn and bake an additional 10-15 minutes. Ovens may vary so keep an eye on them and be sure to cut all the potatoes the same size to ensure even cooking

    Todays recipe is an easy lunch I found on hungry-girl.com . I made English Muffin Pizzas.

    temporary-1.jpg
    Ingredients:

    1 light english muffin (like the ones by Thomas' and Weight Watchers)
    2 tbsp. canned tomato sauce; seasoned to taste with salt, pepper, and spices
    8 Slices Hormel Turkey Pepperoni
    1 oz. Shredded Fat Free Mozzarella Cheese

    Split english muffin, spread sauce on each half. Top with cheese. Place pepperoni on top (cut pepperoni into small pieces & it'll seem like more). Bake at 350 degrees for 12-14 minutes.

    Serves: 1
