Cooking once and making two meals is a smart and economical thing to do. There's a recipe for a "
2-For-1 Turkey Meat Loaf" in the March 3, 2010 issue of Woman's Day magazine. Use ground turkey to make two meat loaves and serve 1½ loaves for Meal 1 and prepare wraps with leftover turkey loaf for Meal 2.
For
Meal 1 -- Slice 1½ of the turkey loaves and serve for dinner. Sautéed peppers, zucchini and onions make a great side. Wrap remaining half loaf and refrigerate up to 3 days. (
Makes 6 servings.)
Ingredients:
2 eggs
1 cup salsa, divided
2 Tbsp salt-free chili powder
¾ tsp salt
2 lb ground turkey
1 cup crushed tortilla chips
1 cup sliced scallions
1 cup shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese
½ cup chopped cilantro
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 425ºF. You'll need a rimmed baking sheet lined with nonstick foil.
2. Whisk eggs, ¾ cup salsa, chili powder and salt in bowl. Add turkey, tortilla chips, scallions, Cheddar cheese and cilantro; mix with your hands to blend.
3. Form on pan into two 9x3-inch loaves. Brush tops with remaining ¼ cup salsa. Bake 35 to 40 minutes until meat thermometer inserted in centers registers 160ºF.
Meal 2 -- For a break from boring lunch, spread
whole-grain tortillas with a mixture of
equal parts salsa and reduced-fat mayonnaise. Top with
lettuce and crumbled remaining meat loaf; roll up.
(Makes 4 servings.)
