Turkey Spinach Mealoaf

Submitted by kitchenslave03

"Another Cooking Light recipe I have yet to try. A mixture of ground turkey and ground beef.Update: I made this a couple of weeks ago, and it was a glowing sucess. My entire family ate it up, greens and all! I did use regular lean ground turkey instead of turkey breast. Next time I would use frozen chopped spinach instead of the leaf spinach."

DELICIOUS! Drawback...no leftovers. :D I used lean ground turkey for the meat and panko instead of breadcrumbs. I added 1/4 tsp ground mustard, because I'm inclined to add mustard to everything. ;) I also used fresh spinach (just steamed it and squeezed it dry). This was terrific! My family devoured it, even my 6 year old son and didn't even put cheese on it...they LOVE cheese. LOL! Thanks so much for posting this!
