Directions

1 Heat oven to 350°F. Heat olive oil in a sauté pan over medium high heat. Add the zucchini, onions, and garlic. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes or until onions are softened. Set the mixture aside to cool.
2 In a bowl combine all the meatloaf ingredients including the cooled vegetable mixture with a good sprinkle of salt and pepper.
3 Mold into a loaf in a 9x13 sprayed or greased glass, baking dish.
4 In a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and brown sugar. Brush the mixture all over the loaf.
5 Bake the meatloaf in the center of the oven uncovered for 50 to 60 minutes. You’ll know it is done when an instant thermometer inserted in the center of the loaf reaches 165°F.

Love this meatloaf. I always make more sauce. We like to heat it up then drizzle more over each slice on our plates. Some time I just use ground turkey, still very moist.
