Rolled Meat Loaf

Ingredients

  • 1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped leaf spinach, thawed
  • 2 pounds hamburger
  • 2 eggs
  • 3/4 cup soft bead crumbs (about 1 slice bread)
  • 1/4 cup catsup
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 14 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 package (3 ounces) smoked sliced ham
  • 3 slices mozzarella cheese, each 3 x 3 inches cut diagonally into halves

Directions

Mix hamburger, eggs, bread crumbs, catsup, milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt, pepper and oregano. Pat the hambuger mixture into a 12 x 10 inch rectangle on piece of aluminum foil that is 18 x 15 inches.

Arrange spinach on hamburger mixture to within 1/2 inch of the edges; sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of salt. Arrange ham on spinach. Roll up rectangle carefully, beginining at 10 inch side and using foil to lift. Press edges and ends of roll to seal.

Place on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Cook uncovered in a 350° F. oven for 1 1/4 hours . Overlap cheese on the top and cook just until the cheese begins to melt, about 1 minute longer. (The center may be slightly pink due to the ham.) Garish with celery leaves if desired
