Ingredients
  • 1 T. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 C. Onion, diced
  • 1 C. Celery, diced
  • ⅓ Vegetable or Chicken Stock
  • ½ tsp. Thyme
  • ½ tsp. Rosemary
  • 2 Slices Whole Wheat Bread
  • 1 lb Organic Lean Ground Turkey
  • 1 Egg
  • ⅓ C. Fresh Parsley, diced
  • Salt & Pepper to taste

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350.
  2. Saute onion and celery in olive oil over medium high heat for about 12 minutes, stirring continuously.
  3. Turn off the heat and add stock and spices to the onions and celery. Let cool.
  4. Pop bread in the oven for about 3 minutes per side to toast (or toast in a toaster). Once toasted and cooled, tear up into bite size pieces.
  5. Combine turkey, egg, bread and onion mixture in a large bowl. Mix well (I used my hands).
  6. Drop turkey mixture on a lightly oiled baking sheet and form into a loaf.
  7. Glaze loaf with Cranberry Apple Butter.

  9. Enjoy!
