3. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, milk, eggs, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, and paprika.
4. Combine Well: Use your hands or a spatula to mix the ingredients until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the meatloaf tender.

8. Rest the Loaf: Remove from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This helps retain moisture.
