Turkey Meatloaf

As you can tell by the picture, this turkey meatloaf was almost completely devoured before I even got to take a picture. Which to me is a complement of this highest degree, since I think finally I got a delicious meatloaf using my favorite extra lean turkey. The extra lean turkey is 99% fat free which makes keeping it moist very difficult, but when I cook for just my husband and I its what I like to use.
Turkey Meatloaf
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 small yellow onion, finely diced
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
3 tbsp BBQ sauce, divided (I used Sweet Baby Rays)
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1/4 cup water
1 egg
1/2 cup whole wheat bread crumbs
1 package of jennie-o extra lean ground turkey (or about 1 1/4lb ground turkey breast)
Directions
Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees. In a small saute pan 0ver medium heat cook the onions and olive oil until translucent, stirring occasionally. Once cooked turn off heat and add Worcestershire sauce, 1 tbsp BBQ sauce, water, salt and pepper. Cool mixture. In a bowl combine egg, bread crumbs, turkey and cooled onion mixture. Place mixture into a loaf pan and smooth out. Bake for 60 minutes. Remove from oven and top with remainder of BBQ sauce and bake for 10 more minutes.
