“‘I modified another recipe to come up with this wonderful moist, tender meat loaf,’ relates Frances Page of Ontario, California. ‘The pineapple-jalapeno picante is a sweet and tangy topping.’”

INGREDIENTS

* 1/2 cup egg substitute
* 1 (8 ounce) can unsweetened crushed pineapple, undrained, divided
* 3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
* 1 teaspoon sugar
* 3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
* 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
* 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
* 1 cup dry bread crumbs
* 1 1/2 pounds ground lean turkey
* 1 tablespoon finely chopped onion
* 1 green onion, finely chopped
* 2 teaspoons finely chopped jalapeno pepper
* 1 teaspoon honey
* 1 teaspoon lime juice
* 1 pinch pepper

DIRECTIONS

1. In a bowl, combine egg substitute, 1/3 cup pineapple and the seasonings. Add bread crumbs; mix well. Crumble meat over mixture; mix well. Press into an 8-in. x 4-in. x 2-in. loaf pan coated with nonstick cooking spray. Top with 1 tablespoon pineapple. Bake at 350 degrees F for 1-1/4 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 180 degrees F. Let stand 5 minutes before serving. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine onions, jalapeno, honey, lime juice, pepper and remaining pineapple. Serve with the meat loaf.
