Day 8 - CHALLENGE TO BE YOUR BEST SELF

Keep on it!

Here's one of the best recipes. Hooray for cooler weather and warm dinners!

Serve with a salad or steamed veggie.

Turkey Meatloaf
============
1 package ground turkey (if breast meat, add 1 extra egg yolk)
2 eggs whisked
2 - 3 slices healthy bread 
1 lb mushrooms chopped in food processor 
1 small white onion 
Parsley fresh or tube
Worcestershire sauce to taste 
Salt, pep, seasonings to taste (I like a seasoning salt called "Badia" that has a bit of a kick, also Trader Joe's season salt is good)
Depending on what else you like for flavor, a couple shakes of nutmeg is good too

Secret is below!

Steps:
Dice onion and brown with olive oil, add processed mushrooms and put in freezer to cool down
Crack and whisk eggs, add bread (crumbled) and allow to soak for a few minutes before whisking in seasonings and Worcestershire
Add cooled onion/mushroom mixture then add the turkey with hand stirring or lots or arm muscle 
SECRET...put a tiny taste-test in a microwave safe ramekin and nuke for 30-45 seconds. Taste it and adjust if needed 

Mold onto shallow or deep roasting pan
Bake at 350 uncovered until golden brown and done
SECRET 2...scoop all of the drippings surrounding the loaf and whisk in a small saucepan with a Turkey gravy packet and 1/2-3/4c cold water and cook while continuing to stir

Yum!!

I have a ton of variations. This is the basic, better than beef tasting, loaf recipe.
