What You'll Need

1 (14-ounce) can stewed tomatoes with Mexican flavors (jalapeno, garlic, and cumin)
1 package (1-pound) ground turkey breast
1/2 cup liquid egg substitute
1 cup old-fashioned oats
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon onion powder

What to Do

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9- x 5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray. In a food processor or blender, process tomatoes 5 to 10 seconds. Reserve 1/4 cup, set aside.
In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Pack mixture in prepared loaf pan. Spoon reserved tomato sauce on top of meat loaf.
Bake 1-1/2 hours. Drain fat from loaf pan 1 to 2 times during cooking.

My husband does not red foods and in particular tomatoes. I have had some success with tomato sauce. Can I prepare this Meat Loaf using tomato sauce with garlic and cumin stirred in? Are there any other spices I should use?
