Lighter Mexican Meatloaf image

This is a great combination of Mexican flavors with light ingredients. This is a great make-ahead meal. The meatloaf can be assembled the night before and topped with half of the enchilada sauce, then covered and refrigerated overnight. Throw it in the oven the next day for a quick and easy meal.

Time 1h5m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

cooking spray
1 pound lean ground turkey
1 pound ground chicken
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained and rinsed
½ (4 ounce) can fire-roasted diced green chiles
1 cup mild chunky salsa
1 (1 ounce) package dry taco seasoning mix
¾ cup plain dried breadcrumbs
3 egg whites
1 (28 ounce) can enchilada sauce, divided

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the ground turkey, ground chicken, black beans, corn, green chiles, salsa, taco seasoning, bread crumbs, and egg whites until thoroughly combined.
  • Form the mixture into a loaf shape and place into the prepared baking dish.
  • Pour half the enchilada sauce over the meatloaf.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and pour the remaining sauce over the loaf. Return to oven and cook until the meatloaf is no longer pink inside and the juices run clear, another 10 to 15 minutes. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the center of the meat loaf should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
  • Slice and serve with pan sauce spooned over the slices.

Not a fan. The meatloaf was dry and the sauce was bland.

This recipe was a disaster! The meatloaf was dry and crumbly, and the sauce was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This meatloaf was a bit dry for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding some more moisture next time, like a cup of chicken broth or a can of tomato soup.

I was pleasantly surprised by how good this meatloaf was. I'm not usually a fan of meatloaf, but this one was moist and flavorful. The sauce was also very good.

This is my new go-to meatloaf recipe. It's so easy to make and always turns out perfectly. I love the addition of the corn and black beans, which give it a nice southwestern flavor.

This was a great recipe! I've made it twice now and both times it's been a hit with my family. The meatloaf is moist and flavorful, and the sauce is the perfect complement. I especially love that it's a lighter version of traditional meatloaf, so I d
