Salsa Meat Loaves

I love meatloaf (and turkey loaf) and spicy foods, and healthy foods that still taste legit...haven't tried this one yet but it's definitely looking good to me...found it on Cooking Light

Salsa Meat Loaves

Making meat loaf in single-serving portions reduces the cooking time by half and keeps the meat juicy.

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 meat loaf)

Ingredients

  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1/3 cup quick-cooking oats
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons chipotle salsa, divided
  • 1/4 cup ketchup, divided
  • 1 pound ground beef, extra lean
  • Cooking spray

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 350°.

2. Combine egg whites in a large bowl, stirring well with a whisk. Stir in oats, 1/2 cup salsa, and 2 tablespoons ketchup. Add beef; mix well. Divide beef mixture into 4 equal portions, shaping each into an oval-shaped loaf. Coat a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Place loaves on prepared pan.

3. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes or until done.

4. Combine remaining 2 tablespoons salsa and remaining 2 tablespoons ketchup in a small bowl; spread mixture evenly over loaves.
