Recipe

    Preparation Time: 30 mins Cook Time: 50 mins Ready Time: 1 hr 20 mins

  • bring the quinoa and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the quinoa is tender, and the water has been absorbed, about 15 to 20 minutes. set aside to cool.
  • preheat an oven to 350 degrees f (175 degrees c).
  • heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. stir in the onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. add the garlic and cook for another minute; remove from heat to cool.
  • stir the turkey, cooked quinoa, onions, tomato paste, hot sauce, 2 tablespoons worcestershire, egg, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until well combined. the mixture will be very moist. shape into a loaf on a foil lined baking sheet. combine the brown sugar, 2 teaspoons worcestershire, and 1 teaspoon water in a small bowl. rub the paste over the top of the meatloaf.
  • bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 50 minutes. an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees f (70 degrees c). let the meatloaf cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
