How to Make Autumn Meatloaf

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, gently combine 1 lb ground turkey, 1 cup chopped spinach (packed), 1/2 cup shredded orange cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup chopped red onion, 1 cup sliced mushrooms, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 1 egg, 1 tsp dried sage, 1 tsp dried thyme, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
  3. Transfer the mixture to a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  4. Spread 1/4 cup ketchup evenly over the top of the meatloaf (optional).
  5. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center registers 165°F (74°C).
  6. Let the meatloaf rest, covered, for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful meatloaf.
