2 pounds of ground turkey breast
2 cans (10-ounces each) of diced tomatoes with chilies
1 (8-ounce) block of white cheddar cheese, cut into small cubes
2-4 tablespoons taco seasoning (homemade or store-bought)
1/4 cup fresh chopped cilantro (use more or less to your liking)
Optional garnishes: chopped cilantro, lime wedges, chopped white/green onions
In a large mixing bowl, mix together ground turkey, cheese, taco seasoning and chopped cilantro until the cheese and spices are evenly distributed throughout the ground turkey.
Mold the turkey into a meatloaf shape and place into an oven-proof dish.
Evenly pour the diced tomatoes and chilies onto the meatloaf.
Bake the Turkey Taco Meatloaf at 375°F for 45 minutes, covered. After 45 minutes has passed, remove the cover and continue baking until the Turkey Taco Meatloaf is browned and cooked through to an internal temperature of 165°F.
Let Turkey Taco Meatloaf rest for 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve inside a tortilla for a more traditional taco-style meal, over a bowl of rice or on its own with the diced tomatoes and chilies. Garnish with optional cilantro, lime and white/green onions.
