Ingredients

• 2 pounds Ground beef
• 1 cup Breadcrumbs
• 0.5 cup Milk
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 cups Fresh spinach leaves
• 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 6 slices Sliced prosciutto
• 1 cup Marinara sauce
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, grated Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well until fully combined.

Step 3

On a large piece of parchment paper, spread the meat mixture into a rectangular shape, about 1/2-inch thick.

Step 4

Layer fresh spinach leaves evenly over the meat mixture, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.

Step 5

Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the spinach, then layer the slices of prosciutto on top.

Step 6

Starting from one short end, use the parchment paper to help roll the meatloaf tightly into a log. Pinch the edges to seal and transfer the rolled meatloaf to the prepared baking sheet, seam side down.

Step 7

Brush the outside of the meatloaf with olive oil to help it brown nicely during baking.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes.

Step 9

Remove the meatloaf from the oven and spread marinara sauce over the top. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

Step 10

Allow the meatloaf to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
