Turkey Meatloaf

I am not always a fan of things made with ground turkey and when I first saw this recipe, I was not sure how it would turn out.  The recipe below is a variation of Bobby Deen's turkey meatloaf recipe found here.  I typically just top with ketchup, but the original recipe calls for a slightly different topping so I included it below.

Ingredients
1 lb. ground turkey
¾ cup fresh bread crumbs (from whole-wheat bread)
½ cup finely chopped sweet onions
¼ cup 1% milk
¼ cup ketchup
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 garlic clove, minced
1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
¾ tsp. salt
¼ tsp. black pepper

Topping (optional or just use ketchup)
2 Tbsp. ketchup
2 tsp. light brown sugar
1 tsp. Dijon mustard

Directions
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. In a large bowl, combine the turkey, bread crumbs, onions, milk, tomato sauce, egg, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently but thoroughly. Mound the meat loaf mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, patting it into a loaf shape with your hands. To make the topping: In a small bowl, combine the ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard. Spoon the topping over the meat loaf, using the back of the spoon to spread it evenly. Bake the meat loaf for about 45 minutes, or until the meat is no longer pink on the inside and is cooked through (165°F on an instant-read thermometer). Let rest for 5 minutes, then slice and serve.
