Barbara's Applesauce Meat Loaf Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
2 lb ground turkey
1 egg, slightly beaten
1/2 cup quick-cooking oatmeal (not instant)
1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/3 cup corn kernels (optional)
1/4 cup minced red bell pepper
1/4 cup minced flat-leaf parsley
1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
2 tsp salt, or to taste
1 freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup ketchup
1 tsp prepared mustard
Recipe Preparation
IN A LARGE BOWL, combine the turkey, egg, oatmeal, applesauce, onion,
corn, red pepper, parsley, 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, salt and
pepper and mix just until the ingredients are blended. Using a
10-inch non-metal pie plate, form the meat into a circle about 8
inches in diameter and 2 inches high. Combine the ketchup, mustard
and 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl. Spread it over
the top of the meat loaf. Cover the top with wax paper, place the
dish in the oven and cook the meat loaf on 100 % power (high) for 10
minutes, rotating the pan after 5 minutes. Remove the dish, carefully
take off the waxed paper, and let the meat loaf stand for 10 minutes
before slicing.

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting made easyOne useful tip is to drink plenty of water. From time to time at some stage in a hectic morning, you guess that you want a snack but in fact you might just need a refreshing glass of water or orange squash. The feelings of needing food and needing a drink are quite similar, but one of the two can lead to a broken diet and the other is ok.
Some lower carb diet guidlines:
* Don't miss meals Most low carb recipes are, well...., low in carbohydrates. Your body must have energy, and carbohydrates are a highly efficient source of energy. A lower carbohydrate diet requires great care in monitoring you intake of energy, as any energy given by non-carbohydrate sources is slower acting.
* Know what is in your food Don't trust advertizing that boasts 'low carb' - check the real nutritional information on the back of the product. A good number of are only slightly reduced and in some cases still higher than a competitors normal brand. Also, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' does not always mean 'low carb' - usually the carbs are the same.
