Vermont Turkey Loaf

2 servings

Vegetable oil spray
½ small onion, coarsely chopped (I use a medium onion)
½ c coarsely chopped carrots
½ c coarsely chopped mushrooms
½ c Italian bread crumbs
¾ ground white meat turkey
Salt and peper

For Glaze:
2 T pure maple syrup
2 tsp Difon mustard
1 large tomato sliced

Preheat oven to 375°

Spray small nonstick skillet with vegetable oil spray and add onions. Sauté 5 minutes over medium heat, add carrots and continue to sauté 5 more minutes. Add mushrooms and sauté 2 minutes.

In a mixing bowl, stir vegetables and bread crumbs into meat, mixing thoroughly. Add salt and pepper to taste. Line a baking tray with foil and shape meat into one loaf about 6 by 3 inches. Bake for 20 minutes (I doubled the recipe and the baking time also doubled).

Meanwhile, mix maple syrup and mustard together.

Remove loaf from oven and poke several holes in it with a skewer. Spoon glaze over loaf. Return to oven 4 more minutes (Ha, cook until done). Slice in half and serve one half to each person. Pour pan juices over each serving. Serve sliced tomatoes on the side.
