Turkey season is just over one week away in Montana, and it’s time to start thinking about ideas for consuming your prize tom.  How about some turkey meat loaf?  I have actually had this before, and W O W.   It is quite simple to make and quite DELICIOUS to eat!

For all you bacon lovers, make it even better by wrapping it in bacon.
