Healthy Turkish Meatloaf Recipe
A healthy meatloaf recipe? It can be hard to imagine but we have tried our best to create a healthier option for you. Taking about 2 hours to prep and cook, this is a delicious dinner option that can be used for leftover the next day. To make it even leaner (but a little less tasty), feel free to substitute out the lamb mince for a turkey or lean pork. Just beware that this will run the risk of drying it out a bit.
Prep Time: 15 mins Cook Time 100 mins Serves: 6

- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1 large eggplant, cut into slices lengthways then finely diced (about 320g)
