TURKEY AND BEEF MEATLOAF WITH CRANBERRY GLAZE
Turkey and cranberries is a match made in heaven -- why wait for Thanksgiving to enjoy it? This healthy take on meatloaf pairs the two in an inspired way: Turkey lightens up the traditional ground beef base and antioxidant-rich cranberries are the centerpiece of a tangy glaze.

Steps:
- Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
- Put the cranberries, ketchup, honey, sriracha, 1/2 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon of the mustard in a small saucepan and stir to combine. Heat over medium-high heat until the mixture starts to bubble, then reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens and the cranberries soften, about 10 minutes. Use a potato masher to crush the cranberries until mostly smooth. Add the rosemary and 1/4 teaspoon salt and set aside to cool slightly.
- Grate the carrot and onion on the small shredding side of a box grater into a large bowl. (This will save any onion liquid, which will help keep the meatloaf moist.) Add the beef, turkey, egg, barley, Worcestershire, remaining 2 teaspoons of the mustard, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Use your hands to mix everything together until well combined.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet and shape into a 9-by-4-inch loaf using your hands. Brush the meatloaf on all sides with half of the cranberry glaze. Bake until the glaze starts to adhere and dry slightly, about 15 minutes. Brush the meatloaf on all sides with the remaining glaze and bake until a thermometer inserted into the center of the meatloaf registers 155 degrees F, 30 to 35 minutes. Garnish with rosemary sprigs before serving.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Make sure all your ingredients are prepped and measured before you start cooking. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh turkey, vegetables, and herbs will give your dishes the best flavor. If possible, buy organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
- Season Generously: Don't be afraid to use plenty of salt and pepper. Seasoning is key to making your dishes taste delicious.
- Don't Overcook the Turkey: Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the turkey is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Overcooking will dry out the turkey.
- Make the Cranberry Glaze Ahead of Time: The cranberry glaze can be made up to 3 days in advance. This will save you time on the day of your meal.
- Use a Good Quality Balsamic Vinegar: The balsamic vinegar in the cranberry glaze should be of good quality. This will give the glaze a rich, complex flavor.
- Soak the Mixed Beans: Soaking the mixed beans overnight will help to reduce their cooking time. If you don't have time to soak the beans, you can also use canned beans.
- Use Fresh Herbs in the Almondine Sauce: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, thyme, and rosemary, will give the almondine sauce a delicious flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs.
- Grate the Potatoes Finely: Grating the potatoes finely will help them to cook evenly in the potato gratin. You can use a food processor or a box grater to grate the potatoes.
- Use a Good Quality Parmesan Cheese: The Parmesan cheese in the potato gratin should be of good quality. This will give the gratin a rich, nutty flavor.
Conclusion:
This Thanksgiving feast is sure to impress your family and friends. The turkey meatloaf is moist and flavorful, the cranberry glaze is tangy and sweet, the mixed beans almandine are creamy and nutty, and the potato gratin is cheesy and delicious. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make this meal at home. So what are you waiting for? Start cooking!
