Yield Serves 6

1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
3 celery stalks, chopped
1 1/2 pounds ground turkey
1 1/2 cups fresh breadcrumbs made from soft white bread
2/3 cup chopped drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
1/2 cup milk
2 eggs
2 teaspoons dried rubbed sage
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons ground pepper
Ketchup

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease 9x5x3-inch glass loaf pan. Heat oil in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add onion; sauté 5 minutes. Add celery; sauté until vegetables are very tender, about 15 minutes longer. Transfer to large bowl.

Tips:

  • Use good quality ground beef. An 80/20 blend of chuck and sirloin is a good choice.
  • Don't overwork the meatloaf mixture. Overworking will make the meatloaf tough.
  • Be sure to press the meatloaf mixture firmly into the loaf pan. This will help to keep it from falling apart.
  • Bake the meatloaf at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center reads 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help to keep the juices from running out.
