i've made this many times, and I started to saute the onions before I added them to the turkey and made the loaf. liked it better than just adding the onions raw.
This is a very tender and tasty, if basic meatloaft. I used ground turkey thigh - 1/4 cup tomato sauce and 1/4 cup ketchup - 1 whole egg and 1 egg white - half dried italian bread crumbs and half plain panko. I mixed veggies and egg first and then added bread crumbs in order to avoid over mixing. This will definitely become a staple in my house.
I have never had any luck with turkey meatloaf but this one works and it's easy! I used ground turkey which is a mix of light and dark and a bit more moist. A half a green pepper is enough for my taste. It was delicious. Would do again in a nanosecond.
Super easy and just the right consistency if you don't overmix. This is a keeper. I did want a couple of other flavors. I added a couple of finely chopped T. of celery, a minced garlic clove, and a shake of oregano and thyme. Wonderful. Ate with mashed potatoes. What's not to like?
Rather than using green pepper, I chop and add red yellow pepper. Makes it zing just a tad more.
Very good basic recipe to jump from. kept everything the same but, Made with ground dark meat chicken , tablespoon of french mustard ( no tomato paste ), thyme from the garden, parsley, two whole eggs. swapped the pepper for chopped carrots. Was very good . prep and cook time was 1 hour 15 minutes , doable for a week night.
