Turkey & Spinach Meatloaf

My good friend Callie has recently been placed on bed rest until her baby boy comes, and I had planned to go over last night to help her make some freezer meals for post baby but since she was relegated to the couch, I made a few at home and brought them over!

One of the meals was a meatloaf that sounded so good, I made it for Tyge and myself for dinner as well and served it with roasted squash and green beans. It's been awhile since I've cooked and blogged a good meal, so I wasn't in the habit of snapping photos and totally forgot, until my plate was licked clean. Oops. Anyway, here's the recipe - you can imagine how good it looked and how much better it tasted!

Ingredients:
  • 1 lb. turkey
  • 2 cups spinach

  • 1 egg
  • 1 Tbsp. salt
  • 1 Tbps. pepper
  • 1 Tbps. oregano
  • 2 Tbps. Worcestershire
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 2 Tbsps. hot sauce of choice
Directions:
  1. Saute spinach, onion, and garlic together in EVOO and set aside.
  2. Mix turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, spices, Worcestershire, and parm together. Add the spinach mixture. Form into meatloaf pan.
