I'm on a turkey kick lately.  I had never tried ground turkey until recently and I've found that I like it soooooo much better.  It doesn't leave as much grease (hardly any at all), and you can't taste the difference between ground turkey and ground beef once it's all "doctored" up!  O

I add lots of random stuff to my meatloaf.  One egg and breadcrumbs are standard.  And then I throw lots of other random stuff in there!  Salt, pepper, parsley, garlic powder, onions, Worsteshire sauce, ketchup and whatever Italian seasoning I can find.  Sometimes, I'll throw in some beer, too.  Just a little so that it gives it flavor, but not too much because then it'll be too liquidy. 

I just saw this so I thought id throw mine in there. I'm all about easy and this is definatly that but still tastes good. I dont use ketchup, bbq sauce gives it the zing I like.
