Tempting Turkey Meatloaf

KateL's Note:

Entered for safe-keeping as a special meatloaf with pine nuts and sun-dried tomatoes found in California Sizzles. To toast pine nuts, bake at 300-325 Fahrenheit for 10 minutes; or skillet toast in dry skillet over medium low heat, stirring constantly until fragrant and browned. Note: it is easy to burn the nuts using the skillet method.

This is my moms favorite recipe, she won't make regular meatloaf anymore! EVER! Make sure pine nuts are well toasted for my taste though...
