Mom's Best Meatloaf
Just made this today. I used 1 lb of ground turkey, 3/4 c of fresh bread crumbs, 1/8 c of oats and corn meal. The rest remained the same. The BBQ sauce and the liquid smoke was a nice touch. After reading that the posters thought it was very moist and hard to get out of pan--I lined the loaf pan w/ sprayed foil which made lifting it out of the pan very easy. My husband likes brown gravy w/ his meatloaf so I served it w/ one of those envelop gravy packets. We really liked it and being turkey--it was healthier.

Penne Pasta with Veggies
We enjoyed this meal very much. I sauteed with only 2 T of butter. I added 1/2 c. of chicken broth. The proscuiutto (5 oz. = 1/3 lb.) really made this dish. I also added sliced mushrooms and red pepper flakes. There is really no need to bake this for more than 20 minutes covered--you are only heating up the ingredients together.

Chicken Pesto Paninis
This was a very simple meal that was well enjoyed. I shall make the orginal someday soon but varied it by what I had on hand. I used hogie rolls with the top sheared off; 1 pregrilled sliced chicken breast; sauteed onions and green pepper; pesto; feta cheese--grilled. Simple and yummy.
