MEAT LOAF
Prep: 15 min Cook: 1 hr 10 min
Cost per Serving: 52 cents
We made a mixture of ground turkey and extra-lean ground beef even leaner by
stretching it with shredded potato. Fat-free egg whites bind it all, and barbecue sauce
replaces the bacon on top.
12 ounces 90% lean ground beef
12 ounces ground turkey
1 potato, shredded and peeled (1 cup)
3/4 cup finely chopped bell pepper
3/4 cup finely chopped onion
1/3 cup barbecue sauce
Whites from 2 large eggs
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon each dried Italian seasoning and pepper

blended.
3. Pack into pan. Brush with remaining 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce.
