Indian-Spiced Turkey Meatloaf with Curried Ketchup Curried

I’ve been on a meatloaf kick lately.  Those are words I never thought I’d say.  But meatloaf doesn’t have to be a bland lump in a pan.  As I’ve recently learned, there are many varieties, and some are much better than others!  Last week, I made this Chili Pumpkin meatloaf.  I decided not to share it because it was just… bland.  Nothing that couldn’t be swallowed, but I knew I could do better.  I set out to find inspiration…

Enter this Indian-Spiced meatloaf!  It’s still an awesomely healthy and high-protein lunch,  and it’s one that you’ll be excited about eating!  The apples, peanuts and raisins give it texture and the spices give it a serious flavor punch.  Want a close up?

No, of course you didn’t.  That’s like asking if you want me to open up one of my mom’s twenty pound books on strange medical conditions, flip to a random page and scan the first photo I find.  Close-ups of meatloaf are disgusting.  But I promise it tastes good!
