Best Ever Slow Cooker Turkey Meatloaf. I tend to be a bit of an over-exaggerator. I often speak using superlatives and get crazy expressive and animated when telling a story.
It helps get the point across. But I promise you. This is, hands-down, the Best Ever Slow Cooker Turkey Meatloaf I have ever eaten! It’s juicy and full of flavor and pairs well with just about any vegetable and side of rice or quinoa.
Best of all, it’s easy to assemble and doesn’t require any pre-cooking or browning of ground meat (you’re welcome!). Even the kids will love it! (All the kids in our house devoured every last bite).
Many thanks to Jenn for sharing this recipe. I hereby declare that it is, indeed, the BEST Meatloaf Ever!
