Servings: persons

1 cup water
1/2 cup quinoa, rinsed well
1 medium zucchini
1 teaspoon olive oil
3/4 cup sambal oelek (Indonesian chile sauce), divided
1 small red onion, finely chopped
2 large egg whites
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pound ground skinless turkey breast
3 tablespoons stone-ground mustard

1
Bring water and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
2
Shred the zucchini using a cheese grater over a lint-free kitchen towel. Wrap the zucchini in the towel and wring out as much water as possible.
3
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and swab with olive oil.
4
Place the zucchini in a large bowl. Add 1/4 cup chile sauce, red onion, egg whites, garlic, parsley, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Add quinoa and turkey; mix well to combine. Divide mixture into 6 parts and shape into small loaves. Space them evenly on the baking sheet.
5
Combine the remaining 1/2 cup chile sauce with mustard. Spread a heaping spoonful over each loaf.
6
Bake in the preheated oven until meatloaves are hot on the inside and sauce has darkened in color, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from oven and let rest, at least 5 minutes.
