Turkey Meatloaf

I saw this recipe on All Recipes, and I made a little change to make it lower calorie and it is still incredibly filling and tasty.


Ingredients

* 2 cups coarsely chopped zucchini
* 1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped onions
* 1 red bell pepper, coarsely chopped
* 1 pound extra lean ground turkey
* 1/2 cup uncooked couscous - SWITCH this to 1/2 cup of wheat tablou salad mix (without the flavor pack) to make it whole grain and cut the calories from this ingredient in half.
* 1 egg
* 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
* 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
* 1/2 cup barbecue sauce, or as needed

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray 20 muffin cups with cooking spray.
2. Place zucchini, onions, and red bell pepper into a food processor, and pulse several times until finely chopped but not liquefied. Place the vegetables into a bowl, and mix in ground turkey, couscous, egg, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard until thoroughly combined. Fill each prepared muffin cup about 3/4 full. Top each cup with about 1 teaspoon of barbecue sauce.
3. Bake in the preheated oven until juices run clear, about 25 minutes. Internal temperature of a muffin measured by an instant-read meat thermometer should be at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
