Mom's Best Ever Turkey Meatloaf

This recipe was modified from one I found in a cookbook published by "The Turkey Store". My family, and everyone I have ever served it too love it and can't believe that it is low fat, low cholesterol. And recently I started substituting oatmeal for bread crumbs since my husband's doctor put him on an even stricter diet than before. It is easy, there is no need to sauté the onions, bell pepper and garlic before mixing with the rest of the ingredients. It is also moist and very tasty. I usually serve with baked sweet potatoes and fresh green beans. It makes GREAT sandwiches the next day.

3. Add more egg if too dry, or add more oatmeal crumbs if too wet.

6. Mix tomato sauce and remaining 1 tablespoon Worcestershire together in small bowl.
7. Remove meatloaf from oven and pour tomato sauce mixture over meatloaf.
8. Return to oven for an additional 15- 20 minutes.
9. If using 99% Fat Free ground turkey breast meat, there is no need to drain fat before pouring tomato sauce on and returning to oven.
10. If you use the regular ground turkey, which is about 7% fat you might want to drain the fat off before pouring the tomato sauce on the loaf.
