Turkey-and-Stuffing Stuffed Meatloaf

Better recipes, better meals.
Ground turkey and turkey sausage are combined with stuffing mix & seasonings, and formed into a round meatloaf with cheese in the middle.
Mix all the ingredients together, except the cheese and half of the jar of mushroom gravy (put aside for later.) Once all the other ingredients are well mixed, spray the bottom of an 8" round glass baking dish with regular Pam or olive oil cooking spray. Put just over half the meat mixture in the bottom of the baking dish and pat to spread it out into an even patty shape (should look like a very large hamburger patty.) Take the shredded cheese and dump onto the patty, to about 1" from the edges, and lightly press it into the meat mixture. Then take about 3 Tablespoons of the remaining gravy and spoon on top of the cheese-topped patty, to about an inch of the perimeter. Then, pat out the remaining meat mixture and lay it on top of the bottom patty/cheese/gravy. Smoosh the sides of the bottom layer up to form one solid "dome" of meatloaf and seal in the cheese layer. Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes; spoon the remaining gravy over the top of the loaf and put back in the oven for another 15-20 minutes (or until a fork or toothpick stuck in the center comes out clean.)
Notes:
I'm not a big fan of red meat, but I grew up in an Italian home where meatball-style meatloaf was a big part of my mom's repertoire. She switched to turkey in the early 90's and it's the only thing I cook with now. This recipe combines my love of turkey meatloaf with my lifestyle as a single, city-girl who doesn't want to spend a ton of time in the kitchen. This is soooo yummy, and is a quick and easy way to make the ultimate comfort food!
