Meatloaf

Usually meatloaf seems completely unappetizing, reminiscent of elementary school cafeterias, and crappy dorm food; but, tonight I was looking for something healthy to eat, and decided to give it a shot. Nothing I found online seemed quite what I was looking for, so I just went for it, and it turned out great.

Olive Oil
1 onion chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
2lbs ground turkey
1 cup bread crumbs
1 egg
1/4 c sundried tomatoes, chopped
1/4 c. kalamata olives, chopped.
a dash of Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper

heat some olive oil in a pan and cook the onion and garlic in a pan. When they are translucent, remove from heat and place in a bowl.

Add all other ingredients. mix thouroughly and put into a loaf pan and bake for 60 minutes or until internal temp is 165 degrees
