Delicious meatloaf making this a healthier option by using Turkey. A traditional Spanish meatloaf calls for Turkey, potatoes, and manchego cheese. We opted to take the potatoes out for this recipe but still leaving in the Manchego cheese to help get give the meatloaf a slightly smoky flavor. If you want to keep the traditional Spanish Meatloaf - add 1 cup of diced parboiled potatoes to the meatloaf mixture. I put the glaze ingredients towards the end of the list just in case you don’t want to add the glaze to the finished meatloaf.
