Turkey Meatloaf Muffins - MMMMMM

Can't take credit for this one- fitness model Jamie Eason came up with this one and it is soooo good!  I just made some for my meal plan for the week!  These are great to have as meals or have on hand for snacks for on go as they supply you with non-synthetic protein from real animal proteins.  Best of all - they are SUPER easy!!


2 lbs ground turkey
3 egg whites
1 cup quick oats
½ tsp ground cumin
½ tsp thyme
2 tsp yellow mustard
2 tsp black pepper
2 tsp chipotle pepper spice
2 garlic cloves
pre-chopped onion and peppers (found in the produce section of most grocery stores or just buy an onion and pepper and slice.  I also add chopped celery)

Preheat Oven 375

Put all spices in bowl and mix.  Then add turkey and egg whites and mix thouroughly.  Make racquetball size portions and place in sprayed muffin tin (makes about 15) and bake for 40 minutes

These are great as your protein source with lunches - just add in 1/2 cup of brown rice and a cup of green veggies and you have a delicious, healthy, whole grain, high protein, low fat lunch!  I also like to have mine on top of some fresh spinach and roma tomatoes and drizzle some balsamic vinegar over top for a yummy dinner!

  1. Looks good, Tarrah! If you bread them and then deep fry them they'll be even more delicious!
