Turkey Meatloaf

A call went out to all blog followers and supporters for easy and tasty dishes for Penny to have when she visits with Elissa, Jean Marc and little Sophie.  The recipes are beginning to flow in. Elaine responded with a recipe for a comforting turkey meatloaf which I know her family loves.  It sounds like just the right kind of dinner to serve to exhausted new parents (and their helpers).  The meatloaf would be wonderful with smashed potatoes and stir fried carrots. Or skip the carrots, make a salad and call it a day.  If you have enough energy, break out the Edy's slow churned ice cream for dessert.

1 pound ground turkey breast
1 egg
1 8 oz. can no salt added tomato sauce
seltzer
bread crumbs
parsley flakes
garlic powder
dried onion or onion powder
any other seasoning you like
fresh ground pepper

Elaine writes "Mix it all together.  The amounts of seltzer and breadcrumbs are not an exact science.  It is "to feel".
Shape it in a log and bake for approximately 60 minutes.  I cover it with ketchup before I bake it because that is how my family likes it.  Bake at 350"
