Rachaels Turkey Stuffin Meatloaf Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and transfer stuffing into a small baking dish. Place dish in oven and reheat 12 to 15 minutes, until warmed through.
• Heat a pot over moderate heat and add extra-virgin olive oil. Work close to the stove and add vegetables as you chop. If you are using fresh carrots, cut them into a small dice or slice thin. If you are using leftover baby carrots, cut carrots into bite-size pieces. Add celery and onion and lightly season vegetables with salt and pepper. Add bay leaf and stock and bring liquid to a boil by raising heat. Add turkey and reduce heat to simmer. Simmer until any raw vegetables are cooked until tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the parsley, and peas, if using.
• Remove stuffing from oven. Using an ice cream scoop, place a healthy scoop of stuffing in the center of a soup bowl. Ladle soup around stuffing ball. Your soup will look like a chunky matzo ball soup. Pull spoonfuls of stuffing away as you eat through your bowl of soup.

Steps:

• For the turkey filling: Heat the EVOO in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat and melt in the butter. Add the turkey and cook, crumbling the meat, until browned. Season with the Worcestershire and some salt and pepper. Add the celery, carrots, onions, potatoes and thyme and cook, partially covered, to soften the vegetables, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute; add the stock and cook to thicken. Stir in the peas until warmed through. Transfer the mixture to a casserole dish.
• For the stuffing: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter. When melted, add the celery, apples, bay leaf and onions. Add the poultry seasoning and salt and pepper if using and cook until tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Add the stuffing mix and moisten with the stock. Arrange the stuffing on top of the turkey filling and dot with butter.
• Cool and store for a make-ahead meal, or bake to serve immediately. If baking immediately, bake at 375 degrees F until brown, bubbly and crisp on top, 15 to 20 minutes. If baking later, bring to room temperature and bake at 375 degrees F until brown, bubbly and crisp on top, 40 to 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large skillet heat the 2 tablespoons of EVOO with 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium-high heat. Add the onions, celery, and the bay leaf, season with salt and pepper, and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Add the stuffing cubes to the skillet, season with poultry seasoning, then moisten with 4 cups (1 quart) of chicken stock. Discard the bay leaf. Place the stuffing in a bowl and cool.
• Once the stuffing is cool enough to handle, add the turkey and the egg, and season with salt and pepper. Mix the turkey with the stuffing. Form the meat mixture into 2 long loaves on a non-stick baking sheet. Drizzle the loaves with EVOO and bake for about an hour, or until the meatloaves are brown and cooked through and they register 165 degrees F on the the meat thermometer.
• FOR GRAVY: Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter in a sauce pot. Add the flour and whisk over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes. Whisk in the remaining 2 cups of stock and cook for 6 to 7 minutes, or until it thickens.

Steps:

• In a skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter. Stir in the flour, cook 1 minute then whisk in the cider and stock. Let thicken, season with salt and pepper, then serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9 x 5-inch (22 x 12 cm) loaf pan with butter and line the pan with a piece of parchment paper, leaving overhang on the 2 long sides.
• Melt the butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, carrots, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper, and ½ teaspoon ground sage. Cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. Transfer to a large bowl and let cool for 15 minutes.
• While the vegetables cool, stir together the stuffing mix and chicken stock in a medium bowl.. Let sit for 15 minutes, until the stuffing mix is soggy and has absorbed all of the liquid.
• Once the vegetables have cooled, add the soaked stuffing mix, ground turkey, remaining teaspoon salt, remaining ¼ teaspoon pepper, remaining ¾ teaspoon ground sage, and the egg. Mix until well combined. Transfer to the prepared loaf pan, pressing down to smooth the top.
• Bake the turkey and stuffing loaf for 25 minutes.
• While the meatloaf loaf bakes, make the glaze: In a medium bowl, mix together the cranberry sauce, ketchup, and mustard.
• Pour the glaze over the meatloaf, then return to the oven and bake for another 20 minutes, or until the internal temperature 165°F (75°C).
• Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then use the parchment to carefully lift out the meatloaf and transfer to a cutting board. Cut into 1-inch-thick slices and serve immediately.
• Enjoy!
