Don’t worry I haven’t forgotten about Meatloaf Monday!! I just needed to pause to make those tasty chocolatey muffins and dipped cookies for valentines week, but now we are back in business. This meatloaf comes straight out of my love for greek flavors. Dill, oregano, sun dried tomatoes and ALLLL of the tahini sauce makes my heart so very happy. It’s the reason I have already make Slow Cooker Greek Chicken and Greek Stuffed Turkey Burgers! Don’t be distracted by the fact that the tahini sauce looks like icing on a cake (which many people mentioned to me on instagram), because you must try this meatloaf! Is there anything better than mixing bunch of stuff in a bowl and plopping it on a baking sheet? Easiest meal ever. You guys know I am team ground turkey – a lean meat that you can mix tons of flavor into that also doesn’t break the bank. WINNING!
By the way – I don’t know about you but I have been loving the Olympics!! Figure Skating and anything snowboard related have been my favorites but watching anyone compete at such a high level is just incredible to me!! I wonder if there could be a blogging or cooking olympics… actually never mind that sounds like Chopped on food network which just stresses me out. I’ll just stay in my kitchen for now! 🙂 Okay let’s get to this meatloaf.
I love olives!! But you can totally leave them out if you don’t.

I’m not normally a fan of ground turkey (something about the texture?) but these flavors look divine! Do you think ground beef would be too heavy for this flavor combo? If so, I’d be willing to try the turkey!
I haven’t tried it with beef but you could give it a go if it’s all you have!
This was incredible! I did not have ground turkey at home, so I used ground chicken and it tasted amazing! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
Awesome, so glad you liked it!!
Looks so yummy! How well do you think this would warm up for leftovers? Would you leave the topping separate?
This looks yummy! Do you think this would warm up well as leftovers? Would you leave the topping separate? I’m thinking about making this for my lunches for the week.
Yes it would be great!! You can leave the topping on to reheat or pour on each portion throughout the week! Up to you!
So easy and delicious! I left out the olives due to some picky eaters in my house, but I added them to the top of my piece 🙂
I also used a combo of tapioca and coconut flour instead of the almond flour (I swore I had almond flour, but of course I didn’t!).
So glad it worked out!! 🙂
Yum! Made this with beef, but left off the topping/sauce. We arent tahini fans here. So good!
So glad!! 🙂
