For two people this makes 3 servings each, and it's great for a dinner and two leftover lunches. So flavorful, figure friendly, and great a freezer meal to save for yourself or gift to a new mom. Don't worry if the top gets black... it's all flavor!

Notes:
*No shortcuts here; make it as is and enjoy! *If you have one of those Vidalia Onion choppers with the interchangeable dice sizes, now is the time to use it. I love the small dice it gets; the vegetables basically melt into the meatloaf but you get the benefit of the nutrients. Kids won't even notice them!

Number of Servings:
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons - extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 - small zucchini finely diced
- 1 - red bell pepper finely diced
- 1 - yellow bell pepper finely diced
- 5 cloves - garlic smashed to a paste with coarse salt
- 1/2 teaspoons - red pepper flakes
- - Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

- 1/4 cups - fresh parsley chopped
- 1 1/2 pounds - ground turkey 90 percent lean
- 1 cups - panko
- 1/2 cups - freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 3/4 cups - ketchup
- 1/4 cups - plus 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Heat the oil in a large saute pan over high heat. Add the zucchini, bell peppers, garlic paste and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes. Season with salt and pepper and cook until the vegetables are almost soft, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.

3. Gently press the mixture into a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan. Whisk the remaining 1/4 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes in a small bowl; brush the mixture over the entire loaf. Bake for 1 to 1 1/4 hours. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
