I'm sorry, I usually check my posts before I send. I've edited it and of course it's ground turkey. In this case I'm the turkey, again , sorry. 🦃

I make a meatloaf that you add stuffing mix to. It's nice because you don't need a lot of other ingrendients.

What a great idea! How much ground meat does it call for?

@Tinkrbl44 This is the recipe. I do not bake it in a bundt pan. I form a loaf and bake it in temp-tations. Of course, it takes longer to bake in a loaf than in a bundt pan. I also put the the traditional ketchup/brown sugar topping on before baking. My spouse LOVES meatloaf.

Ingredients

1 package Stove Top stuffing any flavor
1 cup hot water
2 packets brown gravy mix divided use
1.5 pounds ground beef
1 cup cold water
2 large eggs beaten

Instructions

In a medium sized bowl add stuffing mix and 1 cup of hot water and let sit 5 minutes.
In a separate bowl, mix 1 package of brown gravy mix with cold water. Combine ground beef, mixed gravy and egg.
After the stuffing has sat for 5 minutes and cooled, incorporate the stuffing mix into the ground beef mixture.
Grease a bundt pan with non stick spray and then press the ground beef mixture into the pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 45-55 minutes or until no longer pink inside
Once baked, rest for 5 minutes while preparing the second package of gravy and then invert onto a plate.
Serve with mashed potatoes and brown gravy in the center of the meatloaf.

I made these this weekend and liked them! So easy, I used pork Stove Top as that is my favoriite. I would recommend flipping the meatballs at ten minutes as mine got a little brown on the bottom. It could be my oven, but just a neads up. Thanks so much for sharing!

I think this recipe sounds delicious!! but I would cook the meatballs in the airfryer--meatballs are fabulous cooked that way!!
