  • 1 cup frozen chopped spinach, defrosted and drained well
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Preparation

  1. In a large bowl, combine turkey, eggs, bread crumbs, spinach, vinegar and spices and mix well. Form into a rectangular shaped loaf that is an even thickness throughout and place in crock pot. Cook on high for 3 hours.
  2. About 30 minutes before meatloaf is finished, make sauce. Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium high heat. Cook garlic for 2 minutes or until fragrant.

    Just made this tonight for dinner – really like it!
    I made a few small additions – I did a quick dice of some carrot, green pepper, onion, and celery – sauteed them for a little bit and threw that into the mix.
    Also – I added some chili sauce to the mix as well.
    I love the tomato sauce to put on top!
    This is my first time making any kind of “loaf” in the slow cooker – and I will definitely be doing it again!

    Hi there!
    Am I suppose to add some sort of liquid to cook this loaf, or I put it into bare dry crock pot?

    • avatar Jamie Geller says:

      Just like the recipe says. No additional liquid needed. Good luck and let us know how it turns out.

    Love this dish and its so easy to make. I made it on Purim and it was gone in 5 minutes. How can I can I convert this recipe for Pesach and make it in the oven?

    • avatar Jamie Geller says:

      Hi Valerie so happy you are loving it! You should be able to swap out the bread crumbs for matzo meal for Passover although it may make it just a bit denser. As for the oven bake it at 350 F for about 1 hr 3 minutes. Enjoy!
