My sister-in-law found this recipe, made it and raved about it, so of course I had to try it. The original recipe suggests using coconut flour in place of bread crumbs to make it low-carb, but I just used the bread crumbs. Here is how I made mine:
Tzatziki Sauce:
1 cup yogurt
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 clove garlic, finely minced
1/2 medium cucumber, seeds removed, and shredded
1 tsp chopped, fresh dill
1/4 tsp salt
Meatloaf:
1 medium onion, chopped
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
1 package frozen spinach, thawed and drained
2 lbs ground turkey
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup chicken stock
1 large egg, lightly beaten
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
For the sauce, mix all ingredients in a medium bowl and chill until serving.
For the meatloaf, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and
preheat oven to 325°F. (I didn't have any parchment paper, so I skipped that part and it was fine.) Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Stir in onions, salt and pepper and saute until onions are translucent
but not browned, about 15 minutes. Add in spinach and stir until heated
through.
In a large mixing bowl, combine onion mixture, turkey, bread crumbs,
chicken stock, egg and worcestershire sauce. Mix until very well
combined.
Place half of the turkey mixture on prepared baking sheet and shape
into a flat rectangle, about 1 inch thick. Cover with feta cheese,
pressing on feta to adhere to meatloaf. Place remaining turkey mixture
overtop of feta and shape the whole thing into a rough loaf.
Bake for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, or until internatl temperature reaches 160F on an instant read thermometer.
Cut into slices and drizzle with tzatziki sauce, passing remaining sauce at the table.
Serves 6.
I absolutely loved it, but my husband wasn't such a fan. (He said the tzatziki sauce was great, and he probably would have liked it a whole lot better had it been made with beef instead of turkey.)
