Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, thyme, sage, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Cook, stirring often, until the onions are softened, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute more. Add the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute, stirring to incorporate. Stir in the Worcestershire. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
- Add the panko to a large mixing bowl and pour over the chicken broth so the breadcrumbs soak up the liquid. Add the turkey, eggs, 2 teaspoons salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and the cooled onion mixture and mix well with your hands until well combined. Form the mixture into a 10-by-5-inch loaf on the foil-lined baking sheet. Coat the top and sides with the ketchup.
- Put the meatloaf in the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Bake until a thermometer inserted in the center of the loaf reads 165 degrees F, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
- In a medium saute pan, over medium-low heat, cook the onions, olive oil, salt, pepper, and thyme until translucent, but not browned, approximately 15 minutes. Add the Worcestershire sauce, chicken stock, and tomato paste and mix well. Allow to cool to room temperature.
- Combine the ground turkey, bread crumbs, eggs, and onion mixture in a large bowl. Mix well and shape into a rectangular loaf on an ungreased sheet pan. Spread the ketchup evenly on top. Bake for 1 1/2 hours until the internal temperature is 160 degrees F. and the meatloaf is cooked through. (A pan of hot water in the oven under the meatloaf will keep the top from cracking.) Serve hot, at room temperature, or cold in a sandwich.

BEST TURKEY MEATLOAF
After much trial and error trying to make a more healthy meatloaf, I came up with this recipe. It is important to make this on a baking sheet so the liquids can be drained off the meatloaf. Also, do not put the topping on before the meatloaf has cooked for 30 minutes. Turkey creates a lot of juices, so if you put the topping on first it will become watery and runny.

Tips:
- Choose the right ground turkey: For a moist and flavorful meatloaf, use a combination of ground turkey breast and ground turkey thigh. The breast meat is leaner, while the thigh meat is fattier and more flavorful.
- Don't overmix the meatloaf mixture: Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
- Use a variety of seasonings: Don't be afraid to experiment with different seasonings to find a flavor combination that you enjoy. Some popular seasonings for turkey meatloaf include garlic, onion, thyme, oregano, and paprika.
- Add some moisture: To keep the meatloaf moist, add some liquid to the mixture. Common liquids used in turkey meatloaf recipes include milk, broth, and eggs.
- Bake the meatloaf in a covered baking dish: This will help to keep the meatloaf moist and prevent it from drying out.
- Let the meatloaf rest before slicing: Once the meatloaf is baked, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This will help the meatloaf to hold its shape and prevent it from falling apart.
Conclusion:
Tropical turkey meatloaf is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With its unique blend of flavors and textures, this meatloaf is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting way to cook turkey, give this tropical turkey meatloaf recipe a try.
