Turkey Meatloaf with Ketchup Glaze
"The original recipe for this came from Joan Lunden's Healthy Cooking. I've changed a couple things to our tastes. This is a very moist,delicious meat loaf. Its my favorite. I leave the topping off as my family doesn't care for it."

very good meatloaf, slices beautifully and has lovely flavour, thanks for posting. -
We enjoyed this, but the topping was a little much for us - I'd love to make this again and top with a turkey/brown gravy! Thank you for the easy recipe! I would like to say that I didn't have the full amount of turkey and replaced 1/4lb of it with some extra oatmeal and it worked out beautifully. :) Thanks -
Great flavor, but the cooking time was off and it just didn't hold together very well. -
This makes a tasty and easy to slice meatloaf. I did use 1 whole egg and reduced the brown sugar to 2 tablespoons. -
Wish I would've sen the reviews first to add more oatmeal to my 1lb of ground turkey---but it still turned out pretty good. I also added a little (teaspoon or 2) of soy sauce and asian mustard to the topping...made for a little asian flare. Overall I will definitely try this recipe again!
