Red Pepper Turkey-loaf and Parmesan Potatoes

We don't cook meat often, but when we do, we usually use ground turkey. Turkey cooked with vegetables has a wonderful flavor and texture, and it can serve as a lean meat substitute for traditonal ground beef recipes.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place the potatoes in a roasting pan and spread the remaining ingredients on top. Use a spoon and mix the oil, seasonings, and cheese until the potatoes are well coated, then place in the oven. Next, mix the turkey-loaf ingredients in a large bowl, then form a loaf in a casserole dish leaving space between the loaf and sides of the dish.  Place in oven with potatoes and bake 45 minutes. Stir the potatoes once after they have cooked for about 30 minutes.
