Mexican Meatloaf
Recently I had some Herdez Guacamole Salsa at my mom's as a dip with potato chips....and I was hooked. I just couldn't stopped eating it. So when I saw a Herdez Instagram picture/recipe for a Mexican Meatloaf I knew I had to make it.
INGREDIENTS (serves 8)
2 carrots, diced
2 celery stalks, diced
1/2 onion, chopped
2 poblano peppers, roasted and diced
1 1/2 lbs grounded turkey
1/4 cup cooked white rice
2 cups Herdez Guacamole Salsa
1/2 cup Mexican style cheese blend, shredded
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
olive oil
Refried beans, for serving
Queso fresco, for serving
DIRECTIONS:
Heat a couple tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add carrots, celery and onion. Cook until veggies are tender. Set aside.
Combine grounded turkey and rice in large bowl. Add 1 1/2 cups Herdez guacamole salsa, jalapenos, cheese, egg, poblano pepper, salt and pepper. Mix well.
Form mixture into loaf and place in lightly greased 9" x 13" Baking Dish; cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes.
Remove foil and bake for additional 15-20 minutes or until loaf is cooked through.
Pour remaining Herdez guacamole salsa on top before serving. Serve with refried beans and queso fresco.
