Souperior Frosted Meatloaf - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (1 1/4 ounce) envelope dry onion soup mix, Lipton Beefy
    1 1/2 lbs ground turkey breast or 1 1/2 lbs ground chicken breast
    1 cup soft breadcrumbs
    1/4 cup ketchup (I use Hunt's but any brand will do)
    1/2 cup water
    1/4 cup egg substitute (Egg Beaters)
    1 (4 ounce) package low-fat cheddar cheese, shredded
    1/4 cup bacon bits (I use generic, but any brand will do)
    mashed potatoes (instant, homemade or ready-made)
Preparation
    Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F.
    In a large bowl, combine soup mix, ground turkey, breadcrumbs, ketchup, water and egg substitute.
    In a shallow baking pan, shape meat mixture into a loaf.
    Bake in the pre-heated 350\u00b0F oven for 45 minutes.
    Frost the loaf with the mashed potatoes; then sprinkle with the cheddar cheese and bacon bits.
    Bake 5 more minutes in order to melt the cheese, NO browning involved; then remove from the oven and let 'settle' 5 min before serving.
    Variation: you can also swap out the cheddar cheese for a different cheese such as monterey jack.
