Turkey Meatloaf

Team Rocco's Note:

Best meatloaf recipe I have ever tasted!! I will never make another meatloaf with beef again. Pairs really well with scallion mashed potatoes.

• Total Time: 1 hrs 10 mins
• Prep Time: 15 mins
• Cook Time: 55 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 6

• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1/2 medium onion, chopped
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 (20 ounce) package ground turkey
• 1 egg
• 1 cup breadcrumbs
• 1/2 cup ketchup (plus more to coat top of meatloaf)
• 3 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• salt and pepper
• Frank's red hot sauce
• parmesan cheese (optional)

Directions:

1. Melt the butter in skillet over medium high heat.
2. Sautee the onion and garlic until soft, but make sure not to burn garlic.
3. Set aside onion and garlic to cool.
4. Combine turkey, egg, breadcrumbs, ketchup, worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper, garlic and onion, until all the ingredients are thoroughly mixed (I added about 1/2 Tbsp of Frank's Red Hot for a little kick, but can be decreased/increased depending on preference).
5. Transfer mixture to a greased 8x4 inch loaf pan.
6. Brush ketchup on top to coat.
7. Bake at 350 degrees for about 50-55 minutes.
8. If using the parmesan, add at last 5 minutes and set oven to broil so cheese gets slightly crisp (keep an eye on it so it doesn't burn!).
9. Let meatloaf set for 5 minutes after removing from oven.

Awesome and easy. I was looking for a recipe to make a meatloaf with, and I happened to have all the ingredients for this one. I didn't have fresh garlic so I used the refrigerated squeeze garlic. Flavors were just like original beef and pork meat loaf, texture was less dense, but I loved it that way!
