This basic turkey meatloaf recipe has been my staple recipe for years. It’s super simple and easy to make so I thought I’d share it with you.
Ground turkey breast tends to get a little dry since it is low in fat, so I always add a good bit of water to the bottom of the roasting pan. I also like to baste the meatloaf in the water/cooking juices a few time throughout cooking too.
While I made this recipe with ground turkey, it also works well with ground beef. Serve it with homemade mashed potatoes for a very tasty and filling meal.
