Cajun Turkey Meatloaf - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 lbs lean ground turkey
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2/3 cup quick-cooking oatmeal
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
3 large garlic cloves, minced
4 teaspoons cajun seasoning
2 egg whites (beaten to blend)
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/3 cup creole mustard or 1/3 cup another grainy or spicy mustard

Preparation

If you don't have a pre-made Cajun spice blend, there are several good ones on this site. Try Cajun Seasoning Mix #14190 or Cajun Seasoning #33092. Look for one that has no added salt.
Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F
Optional Step: You can ground the oatmeal in the food processor one or two pulses. You are not looking for flour, just bits of oatmeal somewhat smaller than the whole grain.
Combine all ingredients except mustard in large bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
Place meat mixture in a nonstick loaf pan.
Cover and bake 20 minutes. Scrape off any crud that may appear on the surface. Spread top with mustard.
Bake uncovered another 35 minutes.
Remove from pan and cut into slices.
