To make the meat loaf: in a large bowl, combine the turkey, bread crumbs, onions, carrot, milk tomato sauce, egg, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper. Mix very gently making sure all ingredients are thoroughly combined. Mount the meat loaf mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, patting it into a loaf shape with your hands.

To make the topping: in a small bowl, combine the ketchup, mustard and brown sugar. Now spoon the topping over the meat loaf, using the back of your spoon to spread the topping evenly.
