Mozzarella Stuffed Turkey Meatloaf

Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C).

Make the sauce: In a medium bowl, stir together the tomato sauce, apple cider vinegar, and honey. Set aside.

Make the meatloaf: In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, zucchini, onion, garlic, egg, Dijon mustard, honey, 2 tablespoons of the tomato sauce, bread crumbs, salt, pepper, oregano, basil, and parsley. Mix well.

Add half of the meatloaf mixture to a greased loaf pan and flatten to form an even layer.

Layer the cheese over the meatloaf layer. Top with the rest of the meatloaf and smooth the top.

Top the meatloaf with half of the tomato sauce mixture, using a spoon or rubber spatula to spread evenly. Reserve the rest of the tomato sauce.

Bake the meatloaf for 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reads 160˚F (70˚C) when tested with a meat thermometer.

When the meatloaf is cooked through, warm the reserved tomato sauce in the microwave or a skillet, then drizzle on top of the meatloaf.

Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with your favorite sides. (We used mashed sweet potatoes and asparagus.)

Enjoy!
