PREP 5 minutes COOK TIME 45-50 min SERVES 6
Ingredients:
1/2 cup plain bread crumbs (don't bother with the store bought can, leave a piece of bread on the counter for a few hours covered with a paper towel, then crumble.)
1/3 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley (have I mentioned how awesome fresh herbs from your garden are?)
1/4 cup chopped herb marinated sun-dried tomatoes (you'll find another use for them, I promise)
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 eggs, at room temperature, lightly beaten
2 TBSP whole milk
1/2 cup crumbled feta (trust me!)
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 lb ground turkey
Directions:
Place oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 375° F.
Spray a 9 by 5 inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, stir together the bread crumbs, parsley, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, eggs, milk, feta, salt and pepper. Add the turkey and gently stir to combine, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Carefully pack the mixture into the prepared pan and bake until the internal temperature registers 165°F on an inserted thermometer, about 45 minutes.
I removed the loaf, emptied the juices that had accumulated on the top, then put it back in the oven on BROIL for about 5 minutes so the top browned nicely.
Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes!
Serve with a big, colorful salad!
