Turkey Stuffing Meatloaf: The Comfort Food Mashup You Never Knew You Needed
How to Make It
Preheat & Prep: Set oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a loaf pan or line with parchment.
Mix the Good Stuff: In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, dry stuffing mix, eggs, milk/broth, onion, garlic, sage, salt, and pepper. Use your hands—embrace the squish.
Form the Loaf: Press mixture into the loaf pan or shape free-form on a lined baking sheet.
Top It Off: Mix glaze ingredients and brush over the top. This adds sweetness and moisture.
Bake: Pop it in the oven for 50–60 minutes. Internal temp should hit 165°F (74°C).
Rest & Slice: Let it rest 10 minutes before slicing. You want it to hold together like a champ.
