Turkey and vegetable meatloaf with roasted sweet potatoes

 Ingredients:

For the meatloaf:

• 1.5 pounds ground turkey
• 1 small onion, finely diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup grated zucchini
• 1 cup grated carrots
• 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
• 1/4 cup ketchup
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 eggs, lightly beaten

For the roasted sweet potatoes:

• 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine ground turkey, diced onion, minced garlic, grated zucchini, grated carrots, breadcrumbs, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, dried thyme, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
3. Add the beaten eggs to the turkey mixture and mix until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
4. Transfer the meatloaf mixture to a greased loaf pan, pressing it down firmly to shape it into a loaf.
5. Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
6. While the meatloaf is baking, prepare the roasted sweet potatoes. In a large bowl, combine the sweet potato cubes, olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the sweet potatoes are evenly coated.
7. Spread the sweet potato cubes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and tender, flipping them halfway through.
8. Once the meatloaf is cooked through, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
9. Serve the Turkey and Vegetable Meatloaf slices alongside the roasted sweet potatoes. You can garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or thyme, if desired.
