A modern twist on classic meatloaf, featuring lean ground beef and turkey bacon enlivened with a smoky BBQ glaze, paired with crisp roasted green beans. This dish delivers a delightful balance of savory, tangy, and fresh flavors while keeping the meal light and nutritious.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Beef
2 slices Turkey Bacon
1 large Egg
1/8 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 tbsp BBQ Sauce
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 cup Fresh Green Beans
Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large bowl, combine lean ground beef, lightly beaten egg, whole wheat breadcrumbs, and BBQ sauce. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Finely chop the turkey bacon and mix it into the meat mixture.
Shape the mixture into a loaf and place it on a lined baking tray.
Bake the meatloaf in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
While the meatloaf is baking, prepare the green beans. Trim the ends of the beans and toss them in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Spread the green beans on a separate baking sheet and roast them in the oven for about 15 minutes until they are tender and slightly crispy.
Once done, slice the meatloaf and serve with a side of roasted green beans. Enjoy your balanced and flavorful meal!
