Yields: One loaf with about four servings

Additional information:
I was told once that eating "Mediterranean Style" could add fifteen years to your lifespan. I don't know if that could really be measured accurately and I think it's a load of baloney. But, this meatloaf is delicious enough to try it.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 c sundried tomatoes
  • 1 10 oz pkg frozen chopped spinach, thawed
  • 1/2 c chopped onion
  • 1/4 c crumbled feta cheese (sometimes I substitute cheddar)
  • 1 1/2 lbs ground turkey
  • 1 c quick cooking oats, uncooked
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1/2 c milk
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 400* F.

  2. Soften tomatoes in a bowl of warm water and coarsley chop. Set aside.

  3. In a small skillet, cook spinach and onion over low heat for 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat, cool and add feta (or cheddar) cheese.

  4. In a large bowl, combine turkey, oats, garlic powder, oregano, milk and tomatoes. Mix until well blended with hands.

  5. Shape two-thirds of the turkey mixture into a bowl shape and set aside. Flatten remaining third into an oval shape on a sheetpan and spoon spinach mixture onto center. Flip bowl-shaped turkey mixture on top of this and shape into loaf, pinching at edges to seal.

  6. Cook 30-45 minutes in oven.
