Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.

2. To make the meat loaf: In a large bowl, combine the turkey, bread crumbs, onions, carrot, milk, tomato sauce, egg, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently but thoroughly. Mound the meat loaf mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, patting it into a loaf shape with your hands.

3. To make the topping: In a small bowl, combine the ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard. Spoon the topping over the meat loaf, using the back of the spoon to spread it evenly.

My Mama always says that the best kitchen tools you have are the ones God gave you, and they're right on the ends of your arms! When you really need to get in there and get a good vigorous mix going, use a nice clean pair of hands. That's my advice for mixing up this meat loaf. It's faster and more efficient, not to mention kind of fun.
