Turkey Meatloaf

this is a variation of a Rachel Ray recipe.

1 pound ground turkey (93% fat free)
1 medium onion chopped (a 12 ounce bag of frozen chopped onions works perfectly!)
1 large egg with a splash of milk
1 cup plain bread crumbs
2 tablespoons grill seasoning
1 cup smoky barbeque sauce
1/2 cup salsa (1/4 cup regular salsa with 1/4 cup chipotle salsa)
extra virgin olive oil/vegetable oil
-- can also add 1 chopped green pepper & 2 chopped celery stalks

preheat oven to 400 degrees

1) put ground turkey into a big bowl
2) add the chopped/food processed veggies to the meat in the bowl
3) add bread crumbs & grill seasoning to the meat bowl
4) beat the egg with a splash of milk & then add to the meat bowl
5) in a separate bowl, mix the salsa & the bbq sauce
6) pour 1/2 of the salsa/bbq sauce mixture into the meat bowl
7) brush the bottom/sides of a 9 by 13 baking pan with the veggie/olive oil to prevent sticking
8) using your hands, mix the meatloaf together in the big bowl
9) spread the meatloaf mixture into the baking pan
10) top the entire meatloaf with the remaining salsa/bbq sauce mixture

bake for 45 - 50 minutes. cut into pieces when done & serve.
