Ingredients

1 1/2 lbs lean hamburger
1/2 cup old-fashioned oatmeal, can sub dried bread crumbs
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 egg
4 -6 slices deli ham (thin slices)
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped broccoli, thawed and drained
10 slices American cheese, can sub cheddar or 10 slices colby-monterey jack cheese, divided

Steps:

In large bowl combine first 7 ingredients til very well mixed.
Place mixture onto a sheet of foil.
Press out to a flat, even 8"x10" rectangle.
Top evenly with 6 slices ham to within 1/2" of edges.
Top with 6 slices american cheese.
Sprinkle cheese layer with chopped broccoli evenly. Chop any big pieces smaller.
Roll up starting from long side, lifting and using the foil to help you roll it all up.
Roll up tightly.
Pinch ends and seam closed VERY well. Place seam side down onto cookie sheet, or keep on the foil (seam side down)and place onto cookie sheet, that's what I did. Easier clean up!
Sprinkle with a little coarse ground pepper.
Bake in 350º oven for 55 minutes.
Cut remaining 4 slices cheese in half corner to corner. Place on top of meatloaf nicely, overlapping slices slightly, showing pointed sides.
Bake 5 minutes longer or til cheese is just melted.
Let rest 15-20 minutes before slicing.
Good served with mashed potatoes, baby carrots and fresh rolls.
*Some hams can turn ground beef slightly pink. It is done in 1 hour. Just check juices to see if they are running clear.
**"Do-ahead" Tip:This can be rolled up and refrigerated (covered)for up to 24 hours before baking.

SPIRAL MEATLOAF

Can you stand another meatloaf recipe? I saw this being made on a tv show -- but was vacuuming and didn't catch all the ingredients. So, I adapted my own (rather, my mother's) recipe and came up with this. My husband will not eat meatloaf any other way!

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 loaf, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

1 lb ground chuck
1/2 lb ground pork
1/2 lb ground turkey
1 envelope lipton's onion soup
1/2 cup very hot water
3/4 cup oatmeal
1 egg, beaten
4 tablespoons steak sauce (I use A1)
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon crushed thyme
1/2 teaspoon crushed basil
1 tablespoon flat leaf parsley, chopped (reserve 1 tsp for top of loaf)
1 bag of ready to eat baby spinach leaves
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

Mix the meats, soup mix, water, oatmeal, egg, steak sauce and herbs together in a large bowl.
Pat meat mixutre into a rectangle.
The meat should be about 1/2 inch thick.
Lay the baby spinach leaves over the meat, overlapping them to form a solid layer.
Sprinkle all but 1/2 cup of cheese over the spinach.
Carefully roll the meat up.
This can be a little tricky, but once the first roll is made, it gets easier.
Once rolled, pinch the ends to seal and place on a cooking sheet.
Sprinkle remaining cheese and reserved parsley on top.
Bake at 350 for 45-55 minutes.
Let rest for five minutes before slicing.

Tips:

Choose the right ground meat: For a moist and flavorful meatloaf, use a combination of ground beef and ground pork. You can also use all ground beef, but it will be less moist.
Season your meatloaf well: Use a variety of herbs and spices to flavor your meatloaf. Some good options include garlic, onion, paprika, thyme, and rosemary.
Don't overmix the meatloaf: Overmixing the meatloaf can make it tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
Shape the meatloaf into a spiral: To make a spiral meatloaf, start by forming the meatloaf into a long, thin loaf. Then, use a knife to cut a spiral groove down the center of the loaf. Fill the groove with your favorite fillings, such as cheese, bacon, or vegetables.
Bake the meatloaf at a moderate temperature: Bake the meatloaf at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about an hour, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center of the loaf reads 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Let the meatloaf rest before slicing: Let the meatloaf rest for about 10 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the loaf and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Spiral meatloaf is a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can make a spiral meatloaf that is moist, flavorful, and sure to please everyone at your table.
