A couple weeks ago I saw a recipe for Asian style meatloaf on Meals and Miles. I was particularly intrigued since the recipe included apricot preserves, and I happened to have a jar I was trying to finish off in my fridge. The recipe was pretty simple, and I made it to go along with my sweet potatoes and brussel sprouts for the week.

Ingredients: 1/2 cup oats, 2 tbsp. apricot preserves, 1 tbsp. teriyaki sauce, 2 tbsp. soy sauce, chopped parsley (I used whole package in the picture), 1 lb. ground turkey, one egg

Combine everything in a bowl:

Throw in a few shakes of ground red pepper. Mix well and form into a loaf on a baking tray. Bake at 375° for 35 minutes.

Serve with roasted sweet potatoes and brussel sprouts:

I really liked the flavor of this meatloaf. It wasn’t too heavy, and the slight Asian flavoring made it unique. The parsley added a little color and lightened up the meatiness of it a little bit. I would highly recommend the recipe!
