Meatloaf

Our family's meatloaf recipe has evolved over the years, although the basic recipe has remained fairly constant.  Mostly, we've moved from using ground beef in it to using ground turkey, and eliminating any of the foods I'm sensitive to - so no hot pepper sauce or chilli sauce.  The grated zucchini, carrots, and onions make it a very moist, and delicious, meatloaf.

INGREDIENTS

1 medium summer squash, grated (I almost always use zucchini)

1 medium carrot, grated

1 medium onion, chopped

1 cup old fashioned rolled oats (gluten-free, if needed)

1 large egg

2 pounds ground turkey with the following spices: 1 tsp dried sage, 1 tsp dried crushed Rosemary, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp ground ginger, 1 tsp salt

1/4 cup water

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl and mix together well - this is done easiest by washing your hands well then using them to really mix things together.  Shape and put into loaf pan.  Bake about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
