Turkey Meatloaf

 

For as long as I can remember, I've been a big meatloaf fan (the food...not the musician).

However, in all these years, I've never eaten it made with ground turkey, only ground beef. Well, I decided to take the plunge and make turkey meatloaf using our favorite recipe.

I was more than pleased wth the results. It came out moist and flavorful.

Turkey Meatloaf

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 lbs lean ground turkey
• 1 cup old fashioned oats
• 1 cup (8 oz) tomato sauce 
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup onion, chopped
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 1/4 tsp black papper

Directions:

1. Preheat over to 350 degrees. 
2. Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl. 
3. Pour and press mixture into a greased loaf pan. 
4. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hr to 1 hr 15 min, or until internal temperature reaches 170 degrees. 

Yield: 6 - 8 servings

Now, I'm not giving up my ground beef meatloaf, but I love that I can make this turkey one as a slightly healthier alternative some of the time.
