  2. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Step Three
  1. Line a cookie sheet with foil and place the ground turkey mixture on the cookie sheet.
  2. Using your hands, gently form a loaf to your desired size.
  3. Once the loaf is formed, place in your pre-heated oven and cook for about 25 min. then check on it.
Step Four
  1. While the meatloaf is cooking, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. When the oil begins to shimmer add the last diced shallot along with a pinch of salt and sweat for about 3 min.

  3. Add enough sauce to cover the entire outside of the loaf, then reserve the rest for serving.
  4. Put the meatloaf, that is now coated with the tomato sauce, back into the oven until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
Once the meatloaf is done cooking, let it rest for 5 minutes then serve immediately with more of the tomato sauce on the side and enjoy.

Jenny's Tip: - This recipe is perfect for a quick holiday appetizer like Turkey Meatballs! In Step 3, instead of making a loaf, form meatballs to your desired size. Then follow Step 4 to make the sauce. Once the meatballs are formed and the sauce is made, replace Steps 5 and 6 with: Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a Dutch oven or heavy bottomed pan over medium high heat. Add the meatballs and sear on all sides, should take about 5 minutes. Then add the tomato sauce, cover tightly with a lid and bake in the oven until the meatballs reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees. Serve immediately.
