Happy birthday, Kevin!

Today is Kevin's birthday! He is currently on a trip with his brother's (for work...and play) so I don't get to see him tonight. I did get to make him dinner on Friday before he left though. He requested meatloaf and mac & cheese so I made us Turkey Taco Meatloaf (recipe to follow), shells and cheese and steamed veggie.

Needless to say, he was a happy guy.

Happy birthday Baby!



Turkey Taco Meatloaf

1 lb. ground turkey (I like Taco Seasoned Jenny-O)
1 packet taco seasoning (if you didn't use aforementioned turkey)
1 egg
1/2 cup cheese cracker crumbs (I like using Goldfish or Cheez-its)
4 slices american cheese
Salsa

Preheat the over to 375 degrees.

Combine the ground turkey, seasoning (if needed), egg and cracker crumbs until mixed well. Place half the mixture in the bottom of a loaf pan. Create a small well and place 2 slices of cheese in the well (split in half to create 4 rectangles). Cover the cheese with the rest of the meat. Spread the salsa over top just to cover.

Bake for 35 minutes. Remove from over and add the remaining two slices of cheese on top. Cook for an additional 10 minutes.

Serve hot and enjoy!
