Turkey meatloaf by Allie Dickson

Traditional Thanksgiving in an untraditional way

Ingredients:

1 lb Ground turkey
3/4 cup dried stuffing
3/4 cup chicken or turkey stock
1/2 galla apple chopped very small
1 1/2 celery stocks chopped very small
1/2 cup sweet onion chopped very mall
poultry seasoning 1 tsp.
salt & pepper
1 egg
olive oil

Preheat oven to 400
Begin by setting aside your surfing and adding your stock to it. Let stuffing soak up the stock.
Combine all other ingredients except olive oil. Add your stuffing and mix together.
You can put the mixture into a bread pan to form a loaf, or you can form your own loaf on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or some other nonstick baking thing (I'm so technical). Coat with olive oil and bake for 45 min- 1 hour depending on how your oven bakes.

To compliment the apples in the loaf you can make a delicious and easy Cider gravy!

Cider Gravy

On medium heat, melt 2 TB butter and then add 2 TB flour. Cook for one minute.
Then add 1 c. apple juice or cider, and 1 c. chicken stock. Season with salt and pepper. Cook over the heat until it thickens. Pour over your turkey & stuffing meatloaf and serve everything with mashed potatoes. Delicious!

You don't have to save turkey for thanksgiving day. It is good any time of the year.

*Tip, ground turkey is an excellent subsitute for ground beef and it is so much healthier. When you season it with taco seasoning for example, you can't even tell the difference between it and beef.
