INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Ground Turkey
1 large Egg
2 tablespoons Low-fat Cottage Cheese
1/2 slice Whole Grain Bread
1 cup Butternut Squash, cubed
2 tablespoons Guacamole
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a small loaf pan lightly with olive oil or cooking spray.
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, egg, cottage cheese, and crumbled whole grain bread. Season with your favorite herbs such as thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
Gently mix until all the ingredients are well incorporated, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake the turkey loaf in the preheated oven for approximately 25-30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
While the loaf is baking, toss the cubed butternut squash with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread out on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven (you can place it on a separate rack) for about 20 minutes until tender and lightly caramelized.
Once the turkey loaf is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Plate a serving of roasted squash medley alongside a few slices of the turkey loaf. Top with 2 tablespoons of guacamole either as a side dip or a topping to add a creamy, tangy finish.
