How to Make Turkey Meatloaf With Creamy Horseradish Sauce

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Line two 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 inch loaf pans with waxed paper, ensuring the paper extends over the edges for easy removal.
  3. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of canola oil over medium-high heat.
  4. Add 2 stalks celery (finely chopped), 1 medium onion (finely chopped), 1 cup carrots (finely chopped), and 2 cloves garlic (minced). Sauté until onions are translucent and carrots are softened, about 7 minutes.
  5. Stir in 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 teaspoon salt.
  6. Sauté briefly to blend the herbs' flavors. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
  7. In a large bowl, combine the cooled vegetable mixture with 1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs, 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed, drained and chopped), 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, 1/2 cup ketchup, and 2 pounds ground turkey.
  8. Gently mix by hand until all ingredients are well combined. Divide the mixture evenly between the prepared loaf pans.
  9. Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 180°F (82°C).
  10. Let the meatloaves cool slightly before carefully lifting them out of the pans using the waxed paper. Slice and serve topped with the creamy horseradish sauce.
  11. To make the sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat.
  12. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour until smooth.
  13. Remove from heat and slowly whisk in 1 cup heavy cream and 1/2 cup milk to prevent lumps.
  14. Return the pan to medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and becomes bubbly (about 3-5 minutes).
  15. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon white pepper, and 1/2 cup prepared horseradish.
  16. Serve warm over the meatloaf.
