Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
  • Seafood 145° F |
  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |
  • Ground Turkey 165° F |
  • Ground Pork 160° F

Customize It Instructions

  • If using ground turkey, roast until loaves reach minimum internal temperature, 20-25 minutes.

  1. 1

    Roast the Potatoes

    Cut potatoes into 1" wedges.

    Place potatoes on one prepared baking sheet and toss with 2 tsp. olive oil, half the garlic salt (reserve remaining for broccoli), and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Spread into an even layer.

    Roast in hot oven until golden-brown and tender, 25-30 minutes.

    While potatoes roast, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine half the ricotta (reserve remaining for meatloaves), mozzarella, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.

    Cut broccoli into bite-sized pieces.

    Mince garlic.

  3. 3

    Form the Meatloaves

    In another mixing bowl, combine ground beef, panko, remaining ricotta, half the Italian seasoning (reserve remaining for sauce), half the garlic (reserve remaining for sauce), and 1/2 tsp. salt.

    Divide beef mixture into 4 equally-sized ovals. Press your thumb into center of each oval and place 1/4 the cheese mixture into each well. Close meat around cheese and re-form into an oval. Form a tight seal so cheese stays inside meat.

  4. 4

    Roast the Meatloaves and Broccoli

    Place meatloaves on one half of second prepared baking sheet and evenly top with 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Roast in hot oven, 10 minutes.

    Carefully remove from oven.

    Place broccoli on empty side of baking sheet and toss with 2 tsp. olive oil, remaining garlic salt, and a pinch of pepper. Spread into an even layer on their side. Baking sheet will be hot! Use a utensil.

    Roast again in hot oven until broccoli is tender and meatloaves reach a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 15-20 minutes.

    While meatloaves and broccoli roast, continue recipe.

  5. 5

    Make Sauce and Finish Dish

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add remaining garlic and remaining Italian seasoning to hot pan. Stir occasionally until fragrant, 30-60 seconds.

    Stir in marinara, 1/4 cup water, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper until heated through and thoroughly combined, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner.
