CAJUN TURKEY MEATLOAF (LOW FAT) HUBBIE'S FAVORITE
A healthy version of meatloaf that does not sacrifice the taste for a healthy alternative! Leftovers are great on onion rolls with lettuce and tomato for a great sandwich treat. Your can use either Creole or Cajun seasoning. I've been making this for years, and I can't remember where I got it. Sometimes, I put slices of pancetta (or bacon) on the outside. Of course, it isn't as healthy - but it sure is pretty and tastes great.
