Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds Ground beef
• 0.5 pounds Ground pork
• 1 cup Breadcrumbs
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.25 cup Milk
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 3 cups Fresh spinach
• 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cup Shredded Parmesan cheese
• 0.5 cup Ketchup
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, eggs, milk, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything together until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Step 3

Place a large piece of parchment paper or plastic wrap on your work surface. Spread the meat mixture into a 12 x 8-inch rectangle about 1/2 inch thick.

Step 4

Saute the fresh spinach in a nonstick skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 5

Evenly spread the cooked spinach across the center of the meat mixture, leaving about 1 inch of border around the edges.

Step 6

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over the spinach, distributing them evenly.

Step 7

Use the parchment paper or plastic wrap to gently roll the meat mixture into a log, starting from one of the short edges. Pinch the seams and edges together to seal the meatloaf tightly.

Step 8

Place the rolled meatloaf seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 9

In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, brown sugar, and Dijon mustard. Spread this mixture evenly over the top and sides of the meatloaf.

Step 10

Bake the meatloaf in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

Step 11

Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your Spinach Cheese Stuffed Meatloaf warm!
