I came up with this tonight in order to use up some ground turkey and hash brown patties. I crossed my fingers as I went along, and surprise! - It is delicious! :) The kids also loved it (6 and 3 y.o.). It is comfort food at its best. Yum! I served this with a simple side salad. Ingredients:
1 lb ground turkey |
1 lb pork sausage, mild |
1/2 cup diced onion (i used precut frozen) |
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup, divided |
1 egg |
2/3 cup plain breadcrumbs |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
3 hash brown patties (you can also try frozen shredded potatoes) |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
2. In a large mixing bowl, add ground turkey, ground pork, onions, 1/3 c cream of mushroom soup, egg, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Mix together by hand until all ingredients are well blended.
3. Coat an 8 x 13 or 10 x 13 casserole dish with non-stick spray.
4. Press half of the meat mixture into a long rectangle in the dish (about 10 ).
5. Position the three hash brown patties from the center out (these were rectangular and about the size of an index card - made by Mr. Dee's). There should be an inch of meatloaf all around the edges, and you can add meatloaf where needed.
6. Spread the rest of the cream of mushroom soup evenly over the three hash brown patties. Try not to get the soup on the meatloaf.
7. Carefully press the rest of the meat mixture flat between your hands and place piece by piece over the hash browns until completely covered.
8. Bring the edges of the meatloaf together, pinch and smooth out bumps. No soup should peek through.
9. Place casserole dish uncovered in oven. Bake for 1 hour.
10. Let the meatloaf rest for 5 minutes before serving.
