We served our meatloaf with Stewed Cabbage and it was the perfect side. It is definitely a must try side :)
Turkey Meatloaf
2 - Packages Ground Turkey (about 2.5 lbs total)
3/4 Cup 2 % Milk
1 Cup Seasoned Bread Crumbs (I got these homemade from an Italian Deli)
2 Eggs
1/2 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Pepper
1 - 8 oz Package Reduced Fat Shredded Cheese
1/2 Cup Ketchup (I use natural ketchup) or BBQ Sauce to top
- Combine everything except ketchup or BBQ sauce and mix well (using your hands is the best way)
- Shape into a loaf pan and top with sauce
- Place in a preheated 350 degree oven for 60 minutes or until cooked through
This is a great way to take an old favorite and make it better for you and your family. It cuts down on all the preservatives which is something we are really focusing on. I know it's not perfect and it isn't 100% natural or "whole", but every once in a while it is nice to have a comforting dish :)
