Turkey Meatloaf

Carol Evon's Note:

My family loves this meatloaf recipe; they beg me to make it. I needed to find a healthy recipe to serve my family because of high cholesterol and diabetes. It isn't dry, it's moist.

Pretty good... definitely not dry. I doubled the recipe, which would serve closer to 10, so I'd think this serves more like 5 people.

Yum. Easy to make and tasty. Great warm the first day and in sandwiches the next. I subbed rolled oats for the breadcrumbs. Thanks for posting. This is one I would make again.

Ok. 2nd review. I've had a chance to play with this and I think I like it much better now. I was preparing for the storms here and wanted something ready made and easy to use. I actually did TWO small loafs, one with tomato and one with the BBQ sauce. Again, I used Vidalia Onion but I sauteed it in a bit of Extra Virgin Olive Oil before mixing it in the turkey. This actually helped as before the onions were still raw and the Olive oil added just a touch of flavor. I also used plain bread crumbs as that's what I had, but used some mixed dried herbs for flavoring. I also added 5 minutes to the cook time. Both came out picture perfect and utterly delicious! Both went into the fridge after cooling and were just as good cold as heated up. Great recipe!
