ITALIAN ROLLED MEATLOAF

Italian Rolled Meatloaf image

You can make this using all beef or half beef and half ground pork in place of the sausage meat, I have to say that the using the sausage meat with the ground beef is better! You can really add in any spices that you like, I prefer it with oregano, use seasoning salt for this or regular white salt

Number Of Ingredients 18

Ingredients

2 lbs ground beef
1 lb Italian sausage, casings removed
1 -2 teaspoon seasoning salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/2 cups crushed Ritz cracker crumbs (or use a similar butter cracker)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 eggs, beaten
1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic (or to taste)
1 medium onion, finely chopped
3/4 cup prepared pizza sauce
1 small green bell pepper, finely chopped
1/2 lb ham slices
1 (8 ounce) can mushrooms, drained
8 ounces grated mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
mozzarella cheese, for the top
1 cup pizza sauce

Steps:

Set oven to 375 degrees.
Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking pan.
Mix the first 12 ingredients together.
On a large sheet of doubled waxed paper, pat the mixture into a 13x10-inch rectangle.
Arrange the ham slices on top of the beef mixture, leaving about 1-inch space around the edges.
Sprinkle the mushrooms over the ham.
Sprinkle the mozza cheese over the mushrooms, then sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the mozza cheese.
Starting at the smaller side, roll the meat up jelly roll style (using the wax paper to lift up the beef mixture).
Lightly press together edges the best that you can (they don't have to be closed completely).
Place seam-side down in a 13 x 9-inch baking pan.
Brush with remaining 1/2 cup (or more of pizza sauce).
Bake for 1-1/2 hours (THE LAST 10 MINUTES OF BAKING, sprinkle with about 1-1/2 cups grated mozzarella cheese).
