I must be in an Italian mood lately as my last couple posts have been Italianesque. I don't think that is a word, but it sounds right haha.
I got this recipe in an email from a blog that I subscribe to a couple weeks ago. I thought it sounded really good. I really like regular meatloaf so I have a hard time trying different recipes for different types of meatloaf because I think it is hard to beat the real thing. This meatloaf was really good. It tasted very similar to chicken parmesan (even though I used ground turkey instead of ground chicken. I think the breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese inside the meatloaf gave the breading flavor and then the sauce and cheese on top completed the parmesan piece. It was really good. It was a great new twist on an old classic.
