Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground turkey
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 1 cup pineapple chunks (drained)
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 unit large egg
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the fresh spinach and cook for 1-2 minutes until just wilted. Remove from heat, drain excess moisture, and roughly chop. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, chopped spinach, drained pineapple chunks, panko breadcrumbs, egg, chopped onion, minced garlic, soy sauce, ketchup, salt, and pepper.
Using clean hands or a spatula, mix the ingredients until evenly combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this could make the meatloaf dense.
Transfer the meatloaf mixture to the prepared loaf pan and press it down gently to shape it evenly.
Bake the meatloaf in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Once cooked, remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm, and enjoy your Turkey Pineapple Spinach Meatloaf with your favorite side dishes such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
