1 pound of ground turkey (using a muffin tin to cook)
5 or 6 whole grain crackers or bread crumbs
1 cup of your choice of veggies (diced)
3 plum tomatoes (or more depending on your taste)
1 sweet potato
1 pound of string beans
Spices -- I'll be honest, when it comes to these types of recipes and spices, I just sprinkle a little bit and taste it. If it's seasoned to my liking, I don't add anymore. If it needs more, I add more. For this recipe I used oregano, garlic, black pepper, and cumin.
Cut up your sweet potato however you'd like. I cut them into fries sometimes and sometime I cut them into chips. Once they've been cut up, put them into a bowl and add some olive oil and paprika. Make sure they are evenly coated. Place them on a cookie/baking sheet and prepare to put them in the oven with the mini meat loafs.
For your string beans -- you can steam them in the microwave or on the stove. It's up to you. Sometimes I don't have time to boil them or steam them on the stove so I microwave them.
Directions for your mini meat loafs: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, mix turkey, egg, bread crumbs/crackers in a bowl. Add whatever spices you like. In another bowl (smaller) add your tomatoes (diced) and mash the up into a puree. I like to really get them looking like a sauce so I squish them with my hand. Once your turkey is mixed thoroughly, add 2 or 3 tablespoons of your mixture into each muffin in. Put them in the oven with the potatoes and cook for 30 minutes. Once they are just about cooked, add the tomato puree to the top as a topping. Place them back in the oven for about 5 to 10 more minutes.
On this plate, I have 4 mini meat loafs, a half cup of potatoes, and a cup of green beans. Enjoy!
