Like you, I try to use more and more ground poultry in place of meat and find it works well. I've played with ground turkey for meatloaf, too, and your variation sounds yummy.

Yes, it's great for a change of pace. We're lucky enough to have a shop in our local market that deals exclusively with turkey products, and it's great!

Wow that meatloaf version sounds great!! I'd gotten tired of plain old meatloaf, so this really helps!
Also if your looking for leaner meats, buffalo meat is great. It's the only meat that doesn't use fat as a binder, so its super lean and cooks faster because of that. (I work in a health food store where we sell it)

Wow buffalo meat, what a change of pace that would be! I'm sure if I did some super-sleuth work I could find some ... somewhere ... :-)

I've never made meatloaf before, not a huge thing in Australia, but I'm keen to give it a go! :)

I liked it. The topping got all sweet and tangy and crunch around the edges. YUM!

Don't try to make a loaf of this, it will be raw mush : ( Its very important to use the right size pan and spread it evenly.

I can't understand what may have gone wrong if you actually tried the recipe. I've cooked it a number of times and it always turns out perfectly.

crystalwaters 10 months, 4 weeks ago said:
****Aha, I see the problem! You only joined 2 hours and 29 minutes ago. So you could not have tried the recipe. Please ignore "honeybee090883" comment; he/she/it is slagging a recipe that he/she/it hasn't tried.
