4 slices white bread, crusts trimmed, torn into pieces
8 small sage leaves
1½ lbs ground lean turkey
1 large yellow onion, cut into eighths
1 stalk celery, cut into 2” pieces
½ tsp. dried thyme
1 large whole egg, lightly beaten
2 Tbsp. tomato paste
4 tsp. Dijon mustard
1¼ tsp. Worcestershire sauce
¾ tsp. coarse sea salt
black pepper, freshly cracked
1 large egg white
1 recipe Quick Chicken Gravy
1 recipe Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C/180°C fan, Gas Mark 6). Position an oven rack in center.

Place bread and sage leaves in the bowl of a food processor; pulse to form fine crumbs. Transfer to a medium bowl, and add ground turkey.

Place onion and celery in bowl of food processor; pulse until finely chopped. Add to turkey mixture, using hands to combine. Add thyme, whole egg, 1 Tbsp. tomato paste, mustard, 1 tsp. Worcestershire, and salt; season with pepper. Combine well. Place in a 9x5x2½” nonstick loaf pan.

In a small bowl, combine egg white with remaining Tbsp. tomato paste and ¼ tsp. Worcestershire, whisking with a fork until smooth. Spoon mixture over meatloaf; spread to coat evenly.

Transfer pan to oven; place a baking sheet on lower rack to catch drippings.

Cook until a meat thermometer inserted in center of meatloaf registers 180°F, about 1¼ hours. Remove from oven; let rest 15 minutes covered with foil.

To serve, cut meatloaf into 12 slices, and divide evenly among six serving plates.

Serve immediately with mashed potatoes and hot gravy.
