TEX-MEX TURKEY MEAT LOAF AND CHIPOTLE MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Chop onion, bell pepper, and cilantro and mince garlic, transferring all to a large bowl. Into a blender tear 2 bread slices and grind into fine crumbs. Add crumbs to onion mixture.

Add ‚ cup chili sauce and all remaining ingredients and with your hands mix until just combined (do not overmix).
• Transfer mixture to an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 2 1/2-inch glass loaf pan, pressing down on mixture to eliminate any air pockets (mixture will completely fill pan), and spread remaining 6 tablespoons chili sauce evenly over top. Line a shallow baking pan with foil and put loaf pan in baking pan (to catch any drippings). Bake meat loaf, uncovered, in middle of oven 1 1/2 hours, or until a meat thermometer inserted 2 inches into middle of loaf registers 170°F.

If desired, reheat meat loaf, covered, in a 350°F. oven about 20 minutes.
• Cut meat loaf into 6 or 12 slices and serve with potatoes.
