1 cup finely chopped white onion
1/2 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
1/2 cup grated carrot
1 lb ground round or sirloin, or ground turkey (93 percent lean or leaner)
1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
1/2 cup uncooked old-fashioned oatmeal
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
2 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
2 large egg whites
2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
1/3 cup chicken broth
Vegetable-oil cooking spray

Topping

1 1/2 cups pasta sauce (such as Classico Fire-Roasted Tomato & Garlic Sauce), heated
6 basil leaves

Mashed Potatoes

4 large Idaho baking potatoes, unpeeled, scrubbed and cut into small pieces
1/2 cup skim milk
3 tbsp light sour cream
3 tbsp light (reduced-fat) butter (stick or tub)
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp black pepper
2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Preparation

  1. For meat loaf:

    Step 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F. Pour wine into a medium skillet and cook onion, pepper, and carrot over low to medium heat for 15 minutes. In a separate bowl, combine remaining ingredients and mix thoroughly, using hands. Spoon in vegetables and liquid from skillet. Shape mixture into a loaf approximately 5" wide, 10" long, and 3" to 4" high. Coat a 9" x 13" baking pan (or bread-loaf pan) with cooking spray, then fill with mixture. Bake 1 hour; let stand for 5 minutes before slicing. Top each slice with 1/4 cup warmed pasta sauce and basil leaf.

  2. Mashed Potatoes

    Step 2

    Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add potatoes and simmer 15 minutes or until they yield to soft pressure. Drain, then transfer to a serving bowl. Using a potato masher or hand mixer, combine remaining ingredients. Serve warm with meat loaf.
