Turkey Meatloaf

Quite frankly, I don't care too much for turkey meat.  To me the flavor isn't that rich, so when I do eat turkey, I tend to add lots of seasonings.  I especially enjoy the flavors in taco seasoning, so I add it to my turkey meatloaf.  I find that it adds just the right amount of flavor to enhance the turkey.

I also add some shredded cheese to the meatloaf since the turkey has less fat, you can add some cheese.  I try to find low fat, low sodium cheese.  It's hard to find, but I'll use the regular stuff if that's all I have.  I prefer to use the Taco flavored cheese or Mexican blend of cheese.

You can serve the meatloaf with salsa instead of ketchup if you'd like more Mexican flair with your meal.  I didn't have any in the house this time so that'll be for next time.
