Ingredients

    5 sprays olive oil spray
    5 oz fresh sliced shitake mushrooms
    6 fresh cloves of garlic, minced
    2 Tbsp minced dehydrated onion
    3/4 cup organic beef broth
    1 lb. 93% lean ground turkey
    1 tsp onion powder
    1 tsp garlic powder
    1 tsp dried basil
    2 tsp dried oregano
    1 Tbsp crushed red pepper
    1 Tbsp fresh ground black pepper
    1/4 cup egg substitute
    1 1/4 tsp worcestershire sauce
    60 grams chopped ripe black olives
    1 c. Veggie Shreds - Parmesan, Mozzarella & Romano flavor cheese substitute
    5 more sprays of olive oil spray
    1 c. arrabbiata sauce

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 4 x 8 loaf pan with olive oil spray.

2. Heat the other portion of olive oil spray in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, minced garlic & dehydrated onion. Cook, stirring gently until softened, about 4-5 minutes. Add broth and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid almost evaporates. Set aside & let cool.

3. Once mushrooms are cool enough, place in a food processor & mince fine.

4. Transfer the mushroom mixture to a large bowl. Add the turkey, egg substitute, spices, olives and cheese substitute. Mix only enough to blend, overmixing makes the meatloaf tough & rubbery.

5. Transfer mixture to loaf pan. Top with arrabbiata sauce. Cover loosely with tinfoil.

6. Bake in center of oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the loaf registers 160 degrees (about 65- 70 minutes). Let stand about 5 minutes before slicing. Cut into 12 slices. Serves 6 (2 slices each).
