Tastiest Turkey Meatloaf

This is a leaner version of a comfort food classic.

The recipe calls for ground turkey breast which is generally 99% lean, so the addition of plain yogurt is key to maintaining the meatloaf’s unique texture. Ground turkey is also available in 93% lean and can be used in place of the leaner turkey breast.
