Turkey Meatloaf - Best Ever!

 Janice Scavella (Illinois) says:
So easy and so good! Make this with confidence. I could not tell it was ground turkey! It even looked like ground beef when it was done. Very moist, yet firm enough to slice for sandwiches the next day.

I didn't have Italian so I substituted Greek dressing and then about10 mins before it was finished I spread a little more bbq sauce over top and let it caramelize a bit further in the oven.

Omg omg! I added a little minced garlic onion and bell peppers and this meatloaf was to die for. My boyfriend doesn't eat turkey burger's but he wanted extras of this loaf. ***** (5 STARS) FROM ME.

I've made this multiple times now for my very (very... VERY) picky significant other. He's Italian and misses the 'real deal' meatloaf.

Out of all the recipes I've tried... he LOVES this one! Sometimes I do a bit of honey instead of BBQ sauce. So easy, such a relief. :)

This was a great ground turkey recipe for meatloaf. I added a layer of sharp cheese in the middle and topped it with some pieces of turkey bacon and baked for an hour. My wife really enjoyed it and she has never been a meatloaf lover. Very easy to make.

 Carol (New Jersey) says:
The flavor is fantastic but the amount of wet ingredients made mine mush! I only used 3/4 of the wet mixture because i saw it coming. And i doubled the breadcrumbs and crumbled a piece of wheat bread into it. Still was mushy. I even over cooked it. Noone had this issue? Wth happened to my loaf?!

This recipe was so good. I added a half envelope of onion soup mix. My daughter loved it!! She wasn't a meatloaf fan till now.

 Kathy B (New York) says:
OMG this is literally the best meatloaf I have ever had!! I used gluten free bread crumbs due to my husbands allergy and I did not add the worcestershire sauce since I was out. I will use this every time I make meatloaf from now on! PS my 10 yr old daughter who hates meatloaf even loved it

 Dee (Connecticut) says:
Just made this...had to stop myself from going back for more! Didn't 5 star because it was pretty "wet" and I added a few different spices. Made the pickle and cheese version and added some tomato past to the top....just like a cheeseburger! Can't wait to have leftover sandwich...if there are any leftovers after my family gets home!

 Cambo (Texas) says:
Here is the kicker..add a few shakes of Louisiana Hot Sauce to your mixture... when you are ready to toss in the oven cover the top liberally with Ketchup... blast at 425°F for 10-15 minutes and then turn down to 350°F... enjoy...

This was a great recipe! My family and I loved the meatloaf. I did not use an egg but a replacer due to allergies and no Worcestershire sauce and it still was amazing.
