Spinach Meatloaf Roll Recipe

This delectable dinner was such a joy watching being made - Jay and Gordon's joint venture in Spinach Meatloaf Role. Accompanied by a baked potato and followed with a Lacota Squash dessert - we had a scrumptious dinner.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 LB Ground Beef
1/2 LB Sausage
6 Slices Thick Cut Bacon
2 Eggs Divided
1 C White Onion Chopped
1/2 Cup Celery Chopped
1/4 C Bread Crumbs
Sprinkle with herb mixture of your liking
Salt and Pepper to Taste
1 PKG Frozen Spinach
12 Slices of Cheddar Cheese
1 CUP Blue Cheese Crumbled

In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except the spinach and cheese, blend well. Put down a couple sheets of wax paper - a space approximately 19X16 inches. Spray wax paper with cooking oil spray. Place meat onto wax paper and spread out to make a rectangle a little smaller than the wax paper. Evenly spread and place slices of cheddar cheese. Spread the well drained spinach that has been mixed with one of the egg and the blue cheese. Roll slowly and gently as you would a jelly roll cake - remembering to remove the wax paper as you go. When you get to the end, tightly seal all edges. Place seam side down into a greased baking dish lined with the bacon slices. Wrap the roll with the bacon. (Jay used a nice ceramic one). Cook in a preheated 400 - degree oven for 30 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees for the rest of the cooking time - 35- 45 more minutes. Allow to rest before cutting.
