Ingredients

  1. 2 slices whole-grain sandwich bread, torn into pieces
  2. 1/2 small onion, quartered
  3. 1 medium carrot, quartered
  4. 1/2 pound 93 percent lean ground turkey
  5. 1/2 pound 90 percent lean ground beef
  6. 1 large egg
  7. 1/2 teaspoon plus 1/8 teaspoon curry powder
  8. Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
  9. 1 tablespoon ketchup
  10. 1 tablespoon peach chutney or apricot jam
  11. 2 medium red-skinned potatoes, sliced 1/4 inch thick
  12. 1 head broccoli (florets cut into pieces, stem peeled and thinly sliced)
  13. 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Pulse the bread in a food processor until finely ground; transfer to a large bowl. Add the onion and carrot to the food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Transfer to the bowl with the bread and add the turkey, beef, egg and 1/2 teaspoon each curry powder, salt and pepper. Mix by hand until just combined. Shape into 4 small oblong meatloaves on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Mix the ketchup and chutney in a small bowl and brush over the meatloaves. Bake until just cooked through, about 20 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook 4 minutes, then add the broccoli florets and stem; cook until the vegetables are just tender, about 6 more minutes. Drain; return to the pot. Toss with the olive oil and the remaining 1/8 teaspoon curry powder. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with the meatloaves.

My family loved it, also easy to prepare. Lots of flavor.

Love the slight sweetness the apricot jam brings to the table. This is now my go-to meatloaf recipe. Family and friends have all enjoyed the coziness of this dinner.
Melinda Rice
Perfect. This was my first meatloaf and everybody loved it. It was absolutely not dry and the taste was really nice. Thank you for sharing.
Paul Collins
This was absolutely delicious! Everyone loved it! I made the meatloaf in a mini loaf pan and made sauce to top the individual loaves with equal parts ketchup and apricot jam that i heated before serving. I would definitely make the meatloaf again.
Jared Chambers
This was incredibly easy and well received! I didn’t feel like getting out the food processor so I used panko and grated the onion. I also roasted the potatoes instead. But this was delicious and very moist considering it’s made with turkey (I prefer just beef in meatloaf We’ll certainly make this again, it’s a great low cal dinner for our low fat diet

This was delicious. I doubled the curry–used Sri Lankan curry. And I used a bit more of the ketchup/jam than in the recipe. It was excellent.

Fantastic – I served this to my in-laws tonight and my father-in-law liked it so much that he demanded the recipe on the spot.

I had trouble getting the onion and carrot to chop in the food processor. When I added them to the bowl with the bread crumbs, they sort of clumped together and didn’t really chop, but that may have just been my food processor, which is admittedly older. Next time I’ll chop them separately. The ketchup/apricot jam sauce was delicious. I wasn’t impressed with the veggies on the side, but the meatloaves are a definite winner.

I doubled the recipe (because seriously, where can you buy only half a pound of ground meat? and plan to freeze the extras for another night. Yum!

The whole family loved it! That means, my 4 and 3 year old too! And my husband said “this is like company food!” So great and I had this on the table from start to finish in 50 minutes! That’s a winner for a new recipe! And I LOVED the way the veggies where prepared! Thank you Thank you Thank you!

This was the juiciest, tastiest, meatloaf I have ever made. I did use 1 whole small onion accidently, but I liked it so I would do it again. Even my husband who likes his food very plain enjoyed the sweet curry flavor and the ketschup/apricot jam is just the right amount of glaze to carmelize on the top. I think the best part of this is by making four little loaves you cut the cooking time roughly in half and the meat does not dry out. I will definitely make this again.
