LIGHTER MEATLOAF

I can't remember where I got this because I just have it saved in my Weight Watchers database now, but I've made it many times including for company and it's always a hit. I love that it mostly uses turkey but is still really moist and doesn't taste "light" at all. My husband loves it too! If you follow Weight Watchers it's 4 points for a serving (1/6 of the recipe). I usually serve it with sweet potatoes or steamed veggies.

"Being a working mother with a small budget and little time, I make a lot of dishes using ground beef," explains Alice McCauley of Beaumont, Texas. "When our son complained about having meat loaf again, I came up with this taco-seasoned version. The whole family loves it served with sour cream and extra salsa."
