Jillian Michael's Meatloaf

Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons canola or light olive oil
• 1 medium sweet onion, chopped
• 12 ounces dark or amber beer
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• black ground pepper, to taste
• 1 1/4 pounds organic lean ground beef
• 1 1/4 pounds organic lean ground turkey
• 1 cup soft whole-wheat bread crumbs
• 1/4 cups fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 large egg, lightly beaten
• 1 large egg, whites only, lightly beaten

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Coat an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.

2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until translucent and starting to brown, about 5 minutes.

3. Pour in beer and increase heat to high. Bring to a vigorous boil; cook until the liquid is quite thick and the mixture reduces to about 3/4 cup, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.

4. Stir in thyme, dry mustard, salt and pepper. Let cool for 10 minutes.

5. Add beef, turkey, breadcrumbs, parsley, egg and egg white to the onion mixture.

6. With clean hands, mix thoroughly and transfer to the prepared pan.

7. Bake the meatloaf until an instant-read thermometer registers 160°F when inserted into the center, about 1 hour 20 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes; drain accumulated liquid from the pan and slice.

Makes 8 servings.
