Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 large egg, beaten
1 envelope meat loaf seasoning mix
1/2 cup tomato sauce
2 cups soft bread crumbs
2 pounds lean ground beef
8 thin slices fully cooked ham
8 thin slices Swiss cheese
1 can (4 ounces) sliced mushrooms

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, mix together egg, meat loaf seasoning, tomato sauce and bread crumbs. Add ground beef; mix well. On a piece of waxed paper, pat meat mixture into an 18x9-in. rectangle. Top with layers of ham, cheese and mushrooms. Roll rectangle, jelly-roll style, starting from narrow end. Pinch edges to seal. Place seam side down in a shallow baking pan. Bake until no pink remains, about 1-1/4 hours. Let stand several minutes before slicing. Freeze option: Securely wrap and freeze cooled meat loaf in foil. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Unwrap meat loaf; reheat on a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan in a preheated 350° oven until heated through and a thermometer inserted in center reads 165°.
