To create a healthier alternative to a traditional meatloaf, Salvatore Cantalupo, corporate chef for Corporate Image Dining Services in Samford, Conn., decided to make a meatloaf with a Cajun twist.
“We have been making an effort to look at all our recipes and see how we can maintain the flavor but impart a healthy twist to it,” Cantalupo says. “With this recipe I switched from ground beef to ground turkey, and it has gone over extremely well.”
The recipe also features Tabasco sauce, cayenne pepper, onion, green peppers and Worcestershire sauce for that extra kick.

1 tsp. cayenne
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. cumin
2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. black pepper
4 oz. butter
6 cups bread crumbs
2 cups milk
5 each eggs
