How to Make Garden Vegetable Turkey Meatloaf

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a small bowl, combine 1 cup of Uncle Sam oatmeal (or other rolled oats) with ½ cup of milk. Set aside for 5 minutes to soften.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  4. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced, and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
  5. Add 1 cup chopped carrots, 1 cup chopped zucchini, ½ cup chopped bell peppers (any color), and ½ cup chopped mushrooms. Cook until vegetables are tender and some of the liquid has evaporated, about 8-10 minutes.
  6. In a large bowl, combine 1.5 lbs ground turkey, the softened oatmeal mixture, ½ cup chili sauce, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, and the sautéed vegetables. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
  7. Shape the mixture into a loaf and place it in a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan or on a greased baking sheet.
  8. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 45 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 450°F (230°C) and bake for another 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the outside is nicely browned and crusty.
