Ground Turkey Meat Loaf

This is a recipe to remember.  My kids gobbled it up and there was nothing left afterwards.  That doesn't happen everyday, so this is a keeper.  Some of us ate it plain, some ate it with whole wheat toast, then a slice of the meat loaf, then mozzarella and parmesan cheese sprinkled on top.  The other thing I liked was it's simplicity-- I have another meatloaf recipe that has everything but the kitchen sink in it, and they ate this up more than my other recipe.  Less is more sometimes, and it was a hit!

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds ground turkey
  • 1/4 cup bread crumbs
  • large egg
  • 1/2 medium onion, grated
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons whole milk
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • kosher salt and black pepper

  • Directions
  • 1. Heat oven to 450° F. In a large bowl, combine the turkey, bread crumbs, egg, onion, and 2 tablespoons each of the milk and ketchup; season with ½ teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon pepper.
  • 2. Put the loaf into a bread pan, and top with the remaining ¼ cup ketchup. Bake until cooked through, 30 to 35 minutes.
