Author Notes: I am always trying to take a classic and put my twist on it and with sweet potatoes being a favorite in our home what a perfect idea I thought to incorporate them into a meatloaf! - JennT1981

Serves 4-6

1 small sweet potato, peeled and cubed
1 pound ground turkey
1 egg yolk
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 clove galric, minced
2 tablespoons barbeque sauce
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 slice whole wheat bread crumbs
1/2 cup plain bread crumbs
1/2 tablespoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 1 quart baking dish. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add sweet potato. Cook until tender, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and blend until smooth.
In a large bowl combine ground turkey, yolk, onion, garlic, barbeque sauce, ketchup, mustard, both bread crumbs, pepper and salt. Mix very well until evenly distributed.
Place into baking dish and using your hands mold into a loaf. Bake in preheated oven for about 1 hour and 10 minutes, until golden and cooked through.
