Ready In: 55 mins
Serves: 4-6
Ingredients
MEATLOAF MIX
- 1 lb ground beef (or any meatloaf mix you like!)
- 2 eggs
- 1⁄2 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons italian seasoning
- 1⁄4 cup chili sauce
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons pepper
- 2 teaspoons garlic (powder or salt)
- 1⁄4 cup chopped onion
FILLING
- 8 -12 ounces cooper sharp cheese (I like the sharp cheeses, alter depending on your own taste)
- 1 frozen chopped spinach
TOPPING
- 1 (8 ounce) can tomato paste
Directions
- Preheat Oven to 350 degrees.
- Mix meatloaf ingredients in a large bowl.
- Flatten meatloaf mix on a piece of wax paper, mix should be in a rectangle shape about 1/2 thick in wax paper.
- Cut cheese in thin slices and place on top of meatloaf mix (being sure to leave about a 1/2 inch without cheese around perimeter).
- Microwave frozen spinach according to package information, then drain.
- Place spinach on top of cheese making sure to leave perimeter empty.
- Take on side of wax paper and roll meatloaf carefully, being sure not to let meatloaf crack while rolling.
- After you have rolled the meatloaf pinch the edges to ensure that the cheese/spinach does not leak out while cooking.
- Cover entire meatloaf with the can of tomato paste. (You may want to add some italian seasoning to the tomato paste as it is slightly bland).
- Bake covered for about 35 - 45 minutes or until desired temperature.
