Ground turkey is mixed with shredded veggies, seasonings, and breadcrumbs. It’s all topped off with a zesty homemade glaze.

Ingredients :

  • 1 small onion diced
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar

Directions :

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a pan with foil and spray with cooking spray.
  • In a small skillet, cook the onion and butter over medium heat until softened, about 5 minutes. Cool completely.
  • In a large bowl, add bread crumbs, eggs, tomato sauce, and Worcestershire sauce and stir well to combine. Let rest for 5 minutes.
