Ingredients
2 lbs. of ground turkey1/2 medium sized onion, chopped3 cloves of garlic, chopped or pressed1/2 cup of Bell Pepper (any color) chopped2 large eggs1 tbsp parsley1 tbsp basil1/2 cup of store-bought marinara sauce
Directions
Preheat your oven for 350 degrees. How long your oven takes to heat up will determine when you actually want to start this...

1. Lightly beat the eggs in a small dish.
2. In a large bowl, combine turkey, onions, bell pepper, garlic, and eggs. Have fun with it and get MESSY. I find using my hands is the best and easiest way to do it. Make sure to was up thoroughly after though!
3. Spray a 5"x9" loaf pan and squeeze all that mixture in there.
4. Bake pan in (350 degree) oven for 45 minutes - checking periodically to (quickly) drain any excess liquid that may occur during cooking.
5. Once done, remove pan and place 1/2 cup of marinara sauce on top of loaf. Return to (350 degree) oven for another 15 - 20 minutes.
6. Once out of oven allow to rest for minimum of 5 minutes. Cut lengthwise down the middle and then once about every inch crosswise for 16 perfectly portioned pieces of meatloaf!
7. Enjoy! I sure did...
