Turkey Meat Loaf Surprise

• 2 lbs ground turkey
• 1 12 teaspoons salt
• 12 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
• 12 cup applesauce
• 12 cup finely chopped onion
• 12 cup ketchup
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh sage
• 12 cup fresh breadcrumb
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 4 medium russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 12 lb bacon, cut into 1/2 inch strips, cooked until crisp
• 4 tablespoons milk
• 12 cup sour cream
• 1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

1. Grease a 10-inch round ovenproof baking dish; add all the filling ingredients except the butter in a mixing bowl and stir until combined.
2. Spread turkey mixture into the prepared dish; refrigerate until ready to use.
3. Make the mashed potatoes: add the potatoes to a 4-quart pan with water to cover; add in 1 teaspoon salt and bring water to a boil.
4. Boil gently for 15-20 minutes, until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a sharp knife.
5. Drain the potatoes in a colander and return them to the pan; shake the pan over the heat to dry the potatoes.
6. Add in the remaining teaspoon salt, the bacon, milk, sour cream, and pepper; mash potatoes, and taste to correct the seasoning.
7. Cool the potatoes in the refrigerator until ready to bake.
8. When ready to proceed, preheat oven to 375; spread potatoes over the meat loaf, dot the top with the butter, and place in preheated oven.
9. Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour until the potatoes are golden brown.
10. Cut into wedges and serve.
