Turkey Meatloaf - Delicious!

Tonight my husband decided to cook and he was really looking forward to it. He found this new turkey recipe and tried it last week. It was delicious! Since we had some more ground turkey in the freezer, he decided he would make turkey meatloaf again since we both enjoyed it so much last time. I wanted to share this great recipe with you all, so here it is with a couple of pictures. 


Here is the simple recipe:
1 lb of lean ground turkey
1/2 cup Breadcrumbs
1/3 cup of Italian dressing
1/4 cup of any kind of BBQ sauce
1 egg
1/2 cup 2% shredded Monterey Jack cheese





In bowl combine all ingredients and blend together. Place 90% of turkey in bread loaf pan and make an indention across (long ways) down the center with a spoon. Then pour the shredded cheese in the indention. Place the remaining turkey on top. Bake in oven at 350°F for one hour.


Note: You can also add onions, green peppers, carrots, sweet pickles, seasoning etc.


My husband is a meatloaf lover and when he found this recipe with turkey, he HAD to try it. We are trying to eat a little healthier and had added turkey to our grocery list. Now I don't know how healthy this recipe really is but I assumed it couldn't be that bad. We also made mashed potatoes (small moderation) and corn on the side. We hadn't made it out to the grocery for the week and decided to cook dinner with what we already had in the house. I would of had a side salad with it to make it healthier.


Here is a quick picture of our dinner meal before we tore it up. Left overs will be taken to lunch. Yum! 




If you get a chance to try this recipe, let me know your thoughts. I hope someone tries it. Can't wait to hear your responses. 


Love,
