"Whipped up this low fat number while on a diet/workout program. GREAT beef meatloaf substitute. My husband, the meatloaf lover, just LOVES this loaf and it is SO easy to mix up, freeze and bake later for a quick meal!"

For all the not so positive comments made about turkey loaf I have to say this...I have not made this loaf yet, but like the idea of the salsa so I will be trying it. I do however ALWAYS and ONLY make meat loaf using turkey. I also only use wheat germ to hold it all together (instead of bread crumbs or crackers or something). Just substitute same measuring. Some may not like that texture, but my little family loves it and we usually eat the whole thing in one meal. I also use one pound of turkey, and still one egg. Just play around with it, you will figure it out. Just keep in mind that it is REALLY good for you and can make it just as yummy as your other meat loaf. I also have added lots of garlic or worchestersire sauce.

So easy to make and has a great mildly spicy flavor. You must double the recipe to fit a regular loaf pan and double the cooking time at 375 degrees.

I used 1 lb. of lean ground turkey and doubled the rest of the ingrediants. It took about 50 minutes to cook and I also added fresh basil leaves to the top of the loaf about 3/4 of the way through cooking and a some sliced roma tomatos at the same time, made it look good plus the fresh basil tasted good too. As recipe said, I added lemon pepper to taste and this loaf is healthy and tasty. A winner.

Pretty good, but had to cook longer, like 40 minutes instead. Tried a 2nd one with some light bbq sauce poured across a "ditch" on the top... and wow.. that was good.

This tasted okay but I was not happy with the consistency. It was not a "loaf" like I expected. I let it cook for 45 minutes and it never set up. I doubt I will be making this again.

I've made this meatloaf for friends and family several times now, and it's always a big hit. I double the recipe, and it's normally done in about an hour. Great with pineapple or other fruit salsa.

I love this meatloaf. I used 1 lb of turkey so I doubled the ingredients. It was a little too runny, so I added more bread crumbs and baked for 45-1 hour. It was wonderful.

My family loved this one. I likewise used 1 lb. of turkey for an hour. Also, instead of eggs, I used egg beaters and homemade salsa. I was so deluged by compliments and request I had to make a second one before the end of the week!

I absolutely loved this recipe! I substituted the lemon pepper with some fresh garlic and worcestershire sauce and it turned out fabulous. I also spread some extra salsa over the top of the meatloaf towards the end of the cooking time and it gave it a little extra bite. The other thing I do with meatloaf (and you'll probably think this is weird) is that I place 3 or 4 (unshelled) hard boiled eggs in the middle of the loaf so that when you slice it, every peice comes out with a fun little egg circle in the middle. It also beefs up the volume a little and the twice-cooked eggs turn out really flavourful. Enjoy!

The only thing I substituted was Complete Seasoning for the Lemon Pepper. Amazing flavor and juicy, but yes, I had to leave it at 375ยบ for an hour. Presentation was fine for me, good in consistency also. I'll definitely be doing it again and soon because I received lots of compliments on it. Thanks.
