Just wanted to share a turkey meatloaf recipe I made this evening.

Meatloaf ingredients

1 pound lean ground turkey

1 can rotel(w/green chiles) drained

1 egg beaten

1/2 cup onion

about 1/2 cup quick cooking oats

Teaspoon of salt and pepper

Topping for meatloaf:

1/3 cup ketchup

1 tablespoon mustard

2 tablespoons brown sugar

Directions:

Mix all ingredients for meatloaf and place in a loaf pan. Mix topping ingredients and spread over meatloaf. Bake at 375 degrees for an hour!

This meatloaf is sooooo delicious and goes down so easily on my little pouch! I'll usually skip out on the ketchup topping. It tastes just as good without it!

I can't wait until I can eat food because I will try this out. I usually add salsa to my meatloaf to get the onions, peppers, and tomato flavor. Thanks for sharing!

I have made this with the juice of the rotel drained and not drained. If you like a little spice to your meatloaf just add the juice from the can! It adds a little kick and gives the meatloaf a little more moisture!

Yum, my mouth is watering just thinking about it.

Thank you. This even looks easy enough for someone who never has cooked (that would be me).

Actually, I have found the best meatloaf...and I don't care much for meatloaf. My recipe is restaurant worthy but does take some culinary skills as it also "presents" beautifully which not all meatloaf does.

I won't bother with the whole recipe since it isn't particularly healthy but essentially you roll the meatloaf mixture out flat on a baking paper and put on a thin layer of sauteed mushrooms, onions and some cheese and roll it up like a jelly roll cake. You are supposed to top it with bacon, but that might be just too much. I bake it right on the paper on a baking sheet and it holds together and if you let it rest a few minutes, will slice nicely and look like the jelly roll cake. It tastes like the best cheeseburger you ever had. I make it about once a month and the kids devour it and I love it too.

My granddaughter is coming for a visit from Minneapolis. I may have to give your recipe a try. Her favorite thing I make is meatloaf and my recipe is delicious however I have some culinary chops and she has been learning from me since she was big enough to stand on a chair (3). This is one that would be a lot of fun for us to try.

Bacon would be a must! Yummy !
