Turkey and Quinoa Meatloaf

This meat loaf recipe is very easy to make and way healthier than what your mom used to make. 

For this recipe you will need the following ingredients:

Meat loaf

1/4 cup quinoa
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
1 large clove garlic, chopped
1 (16 ounce) package ground turkey
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce (I use Sriracha but any will do)
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 egg
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper


Glaze

2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon water

Step 1: Getting Started on the Loaf

1. Bring the quinoa and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat.

2. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the quinoa is tender, and the water has been absorbed, about 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside to cool.
