Directions
The turkey and ricotta meatloaf is a second course of tasty and delicate meat at the same time. It’s good both hot and cold and with a side of vegetables and potatoes brilliantly solves a lunch or dinner. Meatloaf is by nature a decidedly versatile dish, which can be prepared with many different ingredients: meat, fish, vegetables, cheeses or legumes in the most varied combinations.
In this recipe we offer it with minced turkey meat, ricotta (cow or sheep to taste) that makes it particularly soft and delicate and a bundle of bacon slices. For a more decisive flavor, the latter can be replaced with the same amount of speck.
