Ingredients
- 2 slice Double Fiber Wheat Bread With Omega-3
- 1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 cup Onions
- 1/4 cup Parsley
- 1/2 cup Carrots
- 1/2 tsp Ground Thyme
- 2 whole egg
- 1 cup Garlic
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
- 1 lb 96/4 Ground Beef
- 20 oz 99 % Lean Ground Turkey Breast
Directions
-Set oven to 375F.
-Cut the tip off a large garlic bulb, or 2 smaller ones, so that the tops of the cloves are exposed.
-Pour about a teaspoon of olive over the top of the bulb(s).
-Wrap and seal in aluminum foil. Roast until the garlic cloves are golden in color, about 50 to 60 minutes.
-Remove from oven.
-Once cool, squeeze the roasted garlic paste from the bulb(s) by squeezing the bulb from the root end towards the open tip.
-Add roasted garlic paste to following recipe as directed.
-Preheat oven to 350F.
-Toast bread in toaster and slice into small pieces.
-Blend the pieces of bread to a desired consistency with a blender or food processor. Set approximately a cup of breadcrumbs aside for later use.
-Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté until soft, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat.
-In a large bowl combine the roasted garlic paste with the eggs, ground thyme, chopped parsley, grated carrot, salt and pepper.
-Add the sautéed onion. Use a large fork to work in the bison and pork meat. Sprinkle in the bread crumbs as you do so.
-Once all the ingredients are well combined, transfer meat mixture to a rimmed baking sheet or roasting pan. Shape mixture into a loaf (approximately 9 inches long, 5 inches wide and 2 inches high).
-Bake for about an hour, or until the meatloaf has an internal temperature in the 155 to 160F range. Remove from oven and let rest for 15 to 20 minutes before slicing.
