Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams lean ground turkey
- 1 medium, finely chopped onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 1 medium, grated carrot
- 1 medium, grated zucchini
- 2 large egg whites
- 50 grams whole wheat breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 as needed olive oil spray
- 2 tablespoons, chopped parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper and lightly spraying it with olive oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, chopped onion, minced garlic, grated carrot, and grated zucchini.
Add the egg whites, whole wheat breadcrumbs, low-sodium soy sauce, dried Italian herbs, salt, and black pepper to the mixture. Mix well with your hands until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Place a large piece of parchment paper on the counter and transfer the meat mixture onto it. Shape the mixture into a rectangular loaf about 1 inch thick.
Carefully roll the meat into a cylinder shape, using the parchment paper to help guide and compress it. Once formed, transfer the meat roll onto the prepared baking sheet.
Spray the top of the meat roll lightly with olive oil spray to help it brown.
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 45 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through and a meat thermometer registers 165°F (74°C).
Remove from the oven and let the meat roll rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Garnish with chopped parsley before serving. Serve warm with your favorite side salad or vegetables.
