Showy

This meatloaf is quite different from the other 1261 (at time of posting) meatloaf recipes. I got this recipe from Jean Pare's Company's Coming for Christmas cookbook. I have made this several times for company and also for "freezer shower" contributions after friends have had babies. So far, everyone who has tried it really likes it. I hope you will, too! Enjoy!

Time 1h15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lbs lean ground beef
2 eggs
2 slices bread, fresh, blended to coarse crumbs
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup milk
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper, freshly ground
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
6 ham slices
10 ounces frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Place first 9 ingredients in large bowl. Mix well. Pat out on sheet of foil to 10 x 12 inch (25 x 30 cm) size.
  • Lay ham slices on top, keeping 1 inch (2.5 cm) in from edges. Spread spinach over ham. Roll up starting from long end, removing foil as you go. Carefully transfer to baking sheet with sides. Pat in sides of meatloaf roll to smooth them. Bake in 350°F (175°C) oven for 1 1/4 hours.
  • Put grated mozzarella cheese on top of meatloaf. Return to oven for 1 to 2 minutes until cheese starts to melt. Cut into slices to serve.
  • NOTE: I frequently will place a wire rack in the baking sheet and transfer the meatloaf, foil and all, to the rack. I then poke holes in the foil to allow the fat to drain away from the meatloaf.
