CL, 3/06

Ingredients

• 1 package rice crackers (3 1/2-ounce)
• 1 pound ground turkey
• 1/2 pound ground pork
• 1 cup chopped green onions
• 1/2 cup hoisin sauce, divided
• 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
• 1/2 cup waterchestnuts, canned, drained and chopped
• 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon minced ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 large egg whites

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 350°.

2. Place crackers in a food processor; process until finely chopped.

3. Combine cracker crumbs, turkey, pork, green onions, 1/4 cup hoisin, and remaining ingredients except cooking spray in a large bowl.

4. Shape mixture into 6 (5 x 2 1/2-inch) loaves on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray; spread 2 teaspoons hoisin over top of each meat loaf. Bake at 350° for 45 minutes or until a thermometer registers 165°. Let stand 5 minutes.

Notes: Truly excellent. Wonderful flavor without being overpowering and very easy to make. Served with wasabi mashed potatoes and a veggie (next time would try horseradish mashed potatoes)
