Sicilian Meat Roll - Light Meatloaf

ColCadsMom's Note:

This is a lightened version of a meatloaf called a Sicilian Meat Roll. It is topped with cheese instead of sauce, but is very well seasoned. My family loves this version but I misplaced my recipe so we haven't had it for awhile. Thought I better post it on here for safe keeping!

HEAVEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pure heaven!!!!!!!!!!!! I did totally cheat on the "low-fat" idea, though! I used a real egg, regular mozzarella and proscuitto instead of ham! And it was TO DIE FOR!!! :) :) We LOVED this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks so much!!!!!!!! :) :)

this was quite good, I used 1 egg in place of the egg substitute, also I increased the seasonings and garlic amounts and added in 2 teaspoons crushed chili flakes for heat, we enjoyed this very much thanks for sharing hon! (made for the Camera-less Chef game)

This was really good. We loved the flavor and I loved the ease of this recipe. It made a great meal with mashed potatoes and salad. I did use real one real egg instead of the substitute and I did not use low fat cheese, just used less cheese. All personal preference.... and thought it was perfect. Thank you for posting and I will be making this again. ZWT3 ZINGO
