Total Time: 55 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 45 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 5
• 1 1/2 lbs fresh ground turkey
• 1 (6 ounce) package stove top monterey style prepared stuffing
• 1 tablespoon dijon mushroom
• 1/2 cup onion, chopped (i prefer sweet variety)
• 1 tablespoon garlic
• 1/4 cup italian seasoned breadcrumbs
• 1 (12 ounce) jar mushroom gravy
• 3/4 cup of shredded cheese (your choice)
• 2 eggs, lightly beaten (i also use "fake" eggs)

Recipe

• 1 mix all the ingredients together, except 1/2 the jar of gravy and the cheese (put those aside for later).
• 2 once all the ingredients are well mixed, spray the bottom of a glass baking dish with pam or olive oil cooking spray.
• 3 put just over half the meat mixture in the bottom of the baking dish and spread out into an even round patty (should look like a really large hamburger patty).
• 4 then take a tablespoon or so of the remaining gravy and spread evenly on top of the patty, with about a half inch perimeter.
• 5 take the shredded or sliced cheese and dump onto the patty and"smoosh" it into the meat mixture with the back of a spoon or your hands.
• 6 get it in as even a layer as possible, again leaving about a half inch perimeter.
• 7 then roll the remaining meat mixture into a ball and lay on top of the patty/cheese/gravy.
• 8 smoosh the sides of the bottom layer up to form one solid "dome" of meatloaf and seal in the cheese layer.
• 9 cook at 400 degrees fahrenheit for 30 minutes; add the remaining gravy to the top and put back in the oven for another 15 minutes (or until a fork or toothpick stuck in the center comes out clean).
• 10 yummy!
