My Turkey meatloaf recipe

As I said previously, this blog is called "How To Cook My Chicken" but I won't give you just chicken cooking resources, I will also give some recipe to cook poultry in general.

You can cook this recipe with turkey or chicken, but turkey meatloaf is one of my favourite dish, specially during winter season. This poultry meatloaf is very easy to cook and it is a low-fat, low-carb and high-protein dish.
