Danah's Turkey Meatloaf

This recipe is super yummy. Ive had it twice before, and we all enjoy it! I finally asked for the recipe and here it is:

2 lbs. ground turkey ( any combo, turkey breast or reg. ground (more flavorful)
2 medium stalks celery, chopped fine
1 small onion, chopped fine
1 clove garlic, chopped fine
3/4 c. whole wheat breadcrumbs ( or regular, just not as healthy)
1/3 c. fat-free milk ( or regular, just not as healthy), or you can use chicken broth
1 TBSP. Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup ketchup
1 egg white
1 egg (lightly beaten)
1 TBSP. olive oil ( any healthy oil to cook celery and onion in)
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
BBQ sauce of your choice for the top.

Preheat oven to 375. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat.Add onion and celery. after 3 minutes add garlic. Cook for 5 more minutes until everything gets soft.Stir frequently to avoid browning. Let cool before adding to turkey loaf.

In a separate bowl, add turkey, breadcrumbs, egg,egg white, Worcestershire, salt, pepper, ketchup,milk, and COOLED celery,onion and garlic mixture.Mix well, do not over mix.Mixture will be moist.

Cover a baking sheet with aluminum foil, and spray it with PAM. Form the turkey mixture into a loaf. Pour BBQ sauce on top. Bake for 1 hour, or until the center temperature reads 165 degrees. Let meat stand 10 minutes before slicing
