Turkey Meat Loaf

Another good recipe to use up some leftover turkey.

Ingredients:
1/2 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 medium carrot, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1 garlic clove
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
11/2 pounds ground turkey
1/2 pound ground pork
1/2 cup bread crumbs
2 large eggs
11/2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons ketchup
8 strips of bacon

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 375°.
Place the red bell pepper, carrot, onion
and garlic in a food processor
and pulse until the mixture is finely chopped.
In a medium skillet,
heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chopped vegetables
and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the vegetables,
turkey, pork, bread crumbs, eggs, salt,
Worcestershire sauce and ketchup and mix well.
Place the meat mixture in a
9-by-13-inch baking dish and,
using your hands, form it into a loaf.
Cover the loaf with the bacon strips.
Bake the meat loaf, uncovered,
until cooked through, about 1 hour.
Pour off the melted fat,
slice the meat loaf and serve.
