Turkey Meatloaf

Went to an awesome event last night at Videon Central. We had lots of fun, but I guess coming home late and the two glasses of pinot left me groggy and listless today. So I'm glad to be home and get back into the (healthy) swing of things...

I wanted to try making a turkey meatloaf, since we love the turkey tacos so much. Turkey has been an awesome substitute for them, keeping the taste without all the saturated fat and excess calories.

I just threw together a bunch of stuff for my meatloaf, hoping it would turn out OK. Admittedly, this is how I usually make new recipes...but it usually turns out pretty well!

I took a pound of lean ground turkey, and put in a dash of sesame oil, a decent amount of Worchestershire sauce, some A1, breadcrumbs, an egg, minced onion, lemon pepper, seasoned salt and parsley. Doesn't it sound so exact?

I baked in a loaf pan at 350 degrees for 55 minutes, and let it rest for about 10 after coming out of the oven.

Here's how it turned out -

Turkey meatloaf, with a sweet potato and salad on the side. My iPhone doesn't make the most appetizing-looking pictures. But it tasted good!

The fiancé and I both enjoyed it. Going to season it a little bit more with things like basil and oregano next time. But overall, it's going on the menu rotation!


Arts Fest this weekend! The yearly event my friends and I hold dear, either the "closer" or the "opener" of the school year parties depending on your perspective. :)

We don't celebrate quite the way we used to in college, but we still are planning on having fun. Some friends are coming up to celebrate the engagement and take in the events, so looks like another great weekend on the docket! (Bar hopping to grade potential wedding DJs? Yes, please!)
