My Microwave Turkey Meatloaf

KatMcC's Note:

The original recipe came with my first microwave and was made with ground beef. I made it originally because my Mom was working and I was the oldest and still at home. My Dad loved it and I liked it too when I hadn't really liked meatloaf before. When I got married I made it for my husband and he loved it as well. Then we started eating healthier, so I altered it to ground turkey instead. I've tried to increase this recipe, but for the microwave it doesn't really work. Some people like it made in a convection oven. Keep in mind you have to let the meatloaf stand or it won't be fully cooked.
