• Cooking spray
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 1/3 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon minced canned chipotle chile in adobo sauce
• 1/2 pound 7% fat ground turkey
• 1 pound ground turkey breast
• 3/4 cup dry breadcrumbs
• 2/3 cup mild chunky salsa, divided
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 6 slices 30%-less-fat center-cut bacon (such as Oscar Mayer), cooked and crumbled
• 2 large egg whites
• 3/4 cup (3 ounces) reduced-fat finely shredded Mexican-style four cheese blend (such as Kraft 2% milk)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°.

2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add onion, bell pepper, chili powder, cumin, and garlic to pan; sauté 1 1/2 minutes or until onion is tender. Stir in chipotle chile; sauté 30 seconds. Remove from pan; cool. Combine onion mixture, turkey, turkey breast, breadcrumbs, 1/3 cup salsa, oregano, bacon, and egg whites in a large bowl.

3. Place half of turkey mixture in an 8 × 4-inch loaf pan coated with cooking spray. Arrange cheese over top, leaving a 1/2-inch border around outside edges. Arrange remaining turkey mixture over cheese, pressing edges to pack. Spread the remaining 1/3 cup salsa over top of meat loaf. Bake at 350° for 1 hour and 25 minutes or until a thermometer registers 165°. Let stand 10 minutes. Remove from pan; cut into 12 slices.
