Never heard of Chicken Parmesan Meatloaf? Me neither. I was hungry for the meatloaf I make and also chicken parmesan. I did a search on the web and found this wonderful combination of both!!
I varied the indigents only since the weather was bad (didn't want to go out) and just used what I had in the house.
Chicken Parmesan Meatloaf
(adapted from What's Cookin, Chicago?)
1 lb ground chicken
1/3 cup egg substitute
1/4 cup Panko bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon basil
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon oregano
2 cloves of garlic
1/4 cup chopped red onion
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup reduced fat grated parmesan cheese
1/2 cup spaghetti sauce (I used Ragu's Old World Traditional)
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese made with 2% milk
parsley for garnish
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray 9x13 pan with cooking spray. I put foil on the bottom then cooking spray for easy clean up.
2. In a separate bowl, mix the following together: ground chicken, egg, bread crumbs, basil, thyme, oregano, garlic, onion, salt, pepper and parmesan cheese.
3. In the 9x13 pan, form the meat into a loaf
4. Pour spaghetti sauce over loaf
5. Bake for 40-45 minutes. Then top with cheese and bake for another 5-10 minutes or until the cheese has melted. If want, sprinkle with parsley.
Weight Watcher Points Plus:
The entire recipe was a total of 29 Points Plus. So I had 6 servings from my loaf. Each serving was 5 Points Plus.
Notes for making next time:
I DO NOT like ground chicken! While my hubby did eat the rest of this, the ground chicken left a bad taste in my mouth. I would like to try this with ground turkey or ground meat.
