I make meatloaf with ground turkey every time, jinx. Better texture and less grease.
Specifically, it's a pound of turkey, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 1 egg, 1/4 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup chili sauce or ketchup, and 1/2 an onion. 45 minutes at 350. |

Do you cook yours in a bread loaf pan, or form it into a loaf shape on a baking sheet so the grease has a way to drip out?

In a loaf pan. But with the turkey, there's basically no grease. I might try it without a pan if I ever use ground beef again.

I make a turkey meatloaf mixture, then cook it in patties in a skillet over medium heat, covered. Very fast, and little grease.
1 lb ground turkey 1 egg 1/4 c breadcrumbs salt seasonings You can go wild with the seasonings. I've listed some combos I like below. Be sure to adjust the salt appropriately to compensate for the salt in the seasonings. * Worcestershire sauce, dijon mustard and minced onion -- (classic meatloaf tastes, add sides of broccoli & mashers) * Green curry paste, garlic and chili sauce -- (serve with lime wedges, shredded cabbage & peanut salad) * Fresh herbs, parmesan, sundried tomatoes & minced olives -- (cover in marinara and melt some mozzarella over it!) * Adobo seasoning, grated queso anejo, cilantro and chilies -- (serve with frijoles negros and your favorite salsa)

You could use salsa in your meatloaf. Onion soup mix is good in it too. I like onions and green peppers in mine.

I made myself a very delightful jacket spud with butter and a little grated cheddar and chopped spring onions (can't recall what you guys call them now). Mmmm. Very tasty.

@ Dana green onions?
I made spinach stuffed chicken breasts. Mayonnaise, feta, spinach, and garlic nestled inside a butterflied chicken breast wrapped in... BACON!

*shakes head* no, was something else. It was mentioned recently, but I can't remember the word.
They're long and thin with a little onion bulb at the end. [eta] Griff, right now I would cheerfully sell my soul to eat that chicken lol |

Yes! Thankyou. That's the one.
Doesn't sound as appetising to me as spring onions :P Ithink because it makes me think of both scally wags and scullions. |

I made this weird lasagna-in-a-box kit because I was in a hurry and didn't feel like cooking anything major.
But I burned it, because I got sidetracked scooping the cats' litter boxes and scrubbing the laundry room floor they peed all over. Yuck. Then I had to take out the trash, and I noticed that they'd peed on the rug by the front door too. Then my son asked me for help with his math homework, DH's friend came over to pick up an old oil tank...went back to the kitchen, smelled the lovely aroma of scorched tomato. Crap. So I made stuffing and gravy and heated up the leftover pork roast from yesterday. Oh well. |

Oh hey, how was that pork roast yesterday? You sounded quite excited atthe idea of doing the full home-cooked works

It was OK, nothing special. I just sprinkled on some pepper and shoved it into the oven. At the last minute I brushed on some (homemade) peach preserves. Not bad.
But I got sidetracked (this is a recurring theme) by a project for a client of mine and neglected the side dishes. I'd meant to make roasted potatoes to go with it, but ended up "baking" some in the microwave instead. I think it's time to dig out the crockpot! |

The peach preserve sounds like a cool idea.
