Sweet n Spicy Dijon Turkey Meat-loaf

Ingredients:

2 lbs ground turkey (or ground chicken breasts)

3 egg whites

1/2 tsp ground cumin

1/2 tsp dried thyme

2 tsp dry yellow mustard

2 tsp black pepper

2 tsp chipotle pepper spice

2 tbsp garlic powder (2 cloves, minced)

2 celery stalks, finely chopped (approx 1 cup)

1 small onion, finely chopped (approx 1 cup)

I always add whatever veggies I have lying around. last time I made this dish I added spinach, diced tomatos, peppers... etc.

*I also mixed some Dijon Mustard with Coconut Nectar, (you could use, honey, stevia... whatever healthy sweetener you like)  and that's what I added to the top of my meat-loaf.  Add it liberally!!!

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees

3. Mix all the ingredients together in a large bowl

4. place mixture in greased muffin tins. (I like to line my muffin tins with cupcake lines, it just makes it really easy to get out, otherwise you have to run a knife around the edge and be careful removing your muffins. 

5. Bake for 40 minutes (This may vary depending on your oven. I would suggest using a meat thermometer to ensure your meat is fully cooked).
