Spiral Meatloaf

Can you stand another meatloaf recipe? I saw this being made on a tv show -- but was vacuuming and didn't catch all the ingredients. So, I adapted my own (rather, my mother's) recipe and came up with this. My husband will not eat meatloaf any other way!

• Ready In: 1 hr 10 mins
• Serves: 8
• Yields: 1 loaf

Ingredients

• 1  lb  ground chuck
• 1⁄2 lb ground pork
• 1⁄2 lb ground turkey
• 1  envelope  lipton's  onion soup
• 1⁄2 cup  very hot water
• 3⁄4 cup oatmeal
• 1  egg, beaten
• 4  tablespoons  steak sauce (I use A1)
• 1  clove garlic, minced
• 1⁄4 teaspoon  crushed thyme
• 1⁄2 teaspoon  crushed basil
• 1  tablespoon flat leaf parsley, chopped (reserve 1 tsp for top of loaf)
• 1  bag  of ready to eat  baby spinach leaves
• 2  cups  shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions

1. Mix the meats, soup mix, water, oatmeal, egg, steak sauce and herbs together in a large bowl.
2. Pat meat mixutre into a rectangle.
3. The meat should be about 1/2 inch thick.
4. Lay the baby spinach leaves over the meat, overlapping them to form a solid layer.
5. Sprinkle all but 1/2 cup of cheese over the spinach.
6. Carefully roll the meat up.
7. This can be a little tricky, but once the first roll is made, it gets easier.
8. Once rolled, pinch the ends to seal and place on a cooking sheet.
9. Sprinkle remaining cheese and reserved parsley on top.
10. Bake at 350 for 45-55 minutes.
11. Let rest for five minutes before slicing.
