- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 375F

- In a large bowl, mix together all other ingredients with cooked vegetables until well-combined.

Notes
Extra lean ground turkey is very easy to overcook, and can result in a dry meatloaf. I like to take mine out of the oven before the meat thermometer hits 165, cover in foil, and let it reach the final temperature in the pan on the counter. You may also add an additional egg to the recipe for added moisture.
