This is one of my favorite meatloaf recipes. It's great cold and in sandwiches. Ingredients:
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach - thawed, drained and squeezed dry |
1 tablespoon butter |
1 cup sliced mushrooms |
1/2 cup chopped onion |
1/2 cup fine dry bread crumbs |
1 egg |
1/4 cup parsley |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 pinch ground black pepper |
1 pinch ground nutmeg |
1 pound ground beef |
1/2 pound lean ground pork |
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
1/2 cup fine dry bread crumbs |
1 egg |
2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Make the filling: Coarsely chop the spinach, and place in a large bowl; set aside. Heat butter in a large heavy skillet over medium heat. Saute mushrooms and onion until onion is translucent. Transfer mushroom mixture to bowl with spinach. Mix in 1/2 cup bread crumbs, 1 egg and parsley. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
3. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, Cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup bread crumbs, 1 egg. Season with Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper. Place meat mixture between two sheets of waxed paper, and roll into a rectangle approximately 18x8 inches. Remove top sheet. Spread spinach mixture evenly over meat, leaving a 1/2 inch border. Roll up meat from the short end in jelly-roll style, lifting and removing paper as you go. Place loaf into an 8x4 inch loaf pan.
4. Bake in preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until browned and juices run clear. Serve hot or cold.
