South Beach Meatloaf

"Phase II recipe As one review indicated, this is a bit on the bland side. For those of you not watching your salt intake, the flavor is improved by using tomato paste with the salt included. This is not a recipe to impress dinner guests, but an easy healthy weekday recipe. Its a good way to eat zucchini without realizing you are eating it."

  1. If you want it with a bit more kick do what I did. Add several dashes of Tabasco Chipotle to the sauce. I have also made this with Bison instead of the ground Turkey; it is very lean so it still fits the South Beach requirements but gives a more traditional meatloaf.
     
  2. For some reason, I just love this recipe. I didn't grow up eating meatloaf, but I love this dish. It's warm and satisfying and I love how it tastes so healthy without losing flavor. I have not found it to be dry, however, sometimes I do have trouble getting it out of the pan in one piece. No matter! Tastes just as good.
     
  3. This just didn't go over very well - it was a bit on the bland side, so much so that we didn't bother to save the leftovers.
     
  4. This recipe is wonderful. We like it because it's south beach friendly. My kids like it better than "regular meatloaf". It's very easy to make and I think the zucchini helps keep it moist. It's a family favorite!
