Transfer to a 9x5 inch loaf pan and form into a loaf, mounding in the center. Cover with a generous layer of ketchup.

THE ';LOVERS'; LOAF





INGREDIENTS


1 (10 ounce) bag washed spinach leaves


1 pound ground beef


1 pound ground pork


3 large eggs, lightly beaten


1 1/4 cups bread crumbs


1 cup grated Romano or Parmesan cheese


salt and pepper to taste


6 slices provolone cheese


6 slices prosciutto or ham, thinly sliced


all-purpose flour for dusting


2 tablespoons olive oil


2 cups red wine


2 cups water





DIRECTIONS


Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).


Place spinach in a microwave safe bowl with a splash of water. Cover, and microwave until the spinach has wilted, about 5 minutes. Drain and allow to cool.


In a large bowl, mix together beef, pork, eggs, bread crumbs, and Romano cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Divide into two equal portions, and roll each into balls.


Place a 15-inch long piece of plastic wrap on your work surface and lightly sprinkle with flour. Place one of the balls onto the plastic wrap and pat into a thin, 8-inch by 10-inch rectangle. Cover evenly with half of the spinach and 3 slices of prosciutto, then shingle three slices of provolone running along the edge facing you.


Using the plastic wrap to lift the meat, roll the loaf starting from the cheese side into a firmly packed spiral, peeling away the plastic wrap as you go. Make a second loaf with remaining ingredients.


To bake, pour wine into a broiler pan bottom. Oil the slotted top with some of the olive oil before placing the loaves on and brushing them with remaining oil. Cover loaves with a sheet of aluminum foil and bake in preheated oven for 40 minutes.


Remove the foil and pour water into the pan. Continue baking for another 35 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Allow to rest 10 minutes before slicing into 1-inch thick slices to serve.

Italian Meat Loaf





4 large eggs


1/2 cup breadcrumbs


6 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese


3 tablespoons olive oil


1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley


1/4 cup minced onion


3 large garlic cloves, minced


1 teaspoon each salt and pepper


1-1/2 pounds ground chuck beef


1/2 pound ground pork


1 small can (8 ounces) tomato sauce





Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.





Combine eggs, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, olive oil, parsley, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Add ground beef and pork and mix thoroughly. Turn into a loaf pan. Cover meatloaf with tomato sauce. Bake 1 hour and 15 minutes or until done. Let rest 15 minutes before serving.
Alas, most meatloaf recipes use at least some of those ingredients in one fashion or another.





I use a pound of ground meat, a half pound of ground pork or sausage (even better), an egg, breadcrumbs (about a half cup), a half cup chopped onions, a teaspoon of beef bullion granules, a teaspoon of worchestershire sauce, pepper to taste.





Then, I make a huge hamburger shape out of it, and throw about two cups of stuffing mixture on top of the pattie. Using both hands, I roll the meat around the stuffing, pop it into the oven at 350 for about an hour...good stuff!





PS...a simple trick to help you make any meatloaf NOT fall apart when you cut it is to take your mixture and slam it down onto your immaculately clean countertop over and over again. Besides pounding out all of the air pockets that allow a meatloaf to crumble, it also gives you a way to work out aggression...LOL! It works!
I usually add a package of dry onion soup mix, egg and Italian seasoned bread crumbs......but sometimes I use Tony Chachere's Creole seasoning, a little cumin %26amp; chili powder, and some BBQ sauce.....
Throw in some ketchup and brown sugar and use the mix again as a sauce. Its so delicious and simple.
