We loved this recipe. I 1/2'd it and used salsa instead of tomato sauce, and 1 egg worth of egg whites. And because I was in a hurry I cooked it in my microwave steamer (shaped loaf in the part with the holes and put about 1/4 cup water in the bottom. All the fat and juice drained away and what was left was a wonderful meatloaf full of flavor...In my microwave it was cooked to perfection in 12 mins... Thanks for posting this Sarahbeth...

So this actually got some mixed reviews. I made a few changes and that may be some of the issue. I used taco flavored turkey burger so I didn't use the taco seasoning and that I think was an issue in flavor. I made everything else as is. It was way to moist and I had to drain off 1/2-1 cup of liquid. I will try this again as written except add more bread crumbs. Thanks for an interesting dinner.
