Ingredients

Meatloaf

1/2 sweet onion
1/2 red bell pepper
1tsp italian seasoning
1tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1/2tsp salt
1 egg
1/3cup ketchupI use the reduced sugar ketchup
1/4cup italian bread crumbs
1package 93/7 ground turkey
1/2tsp black pepper

Cauliflower Mash

2-4bags frozen steamable cauliflower
1tbsp garlic powder
1/2tbsp salt
1/2tbsp pepper
2 wedges laughing cow(I like the light swiss and the white cheddar for this) I use 2 wedges per 1 bag of cauliflower

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400. Saute onion and peppers after diced. Mix all ingredients in a bowl with turkey. Spray a pan (a bread loaf pan works best) and place mixture evenly in pan. Bake 35 minutes. Take out and spoon out all the liquid from the pan. Top mixture with ¼ cup more ketchup and place back in oven for 25 minutes. .
The fast version of this is to buy the frozen steamable bags of cauliflower and cook according to instructions on package. Once cooked add cauliflower to blender and add in 1 tbsp garlic powder, ½ tbsp of salt and pepper and 2 laughing cow cheese wedges (I like the light swiss and the white cheddar for this) per 1 bag of cauliflower. Add almond milk or milk of choice if mixture is dry. Do a tiny bit at a time to ensure it doesn’t become too thin.
