Jelly Roll Meatloaf
From luvshk 17 years ago

First of all, there is no jelly in this meatloaf. Jelly Roll describes the way this is made. I get requests for "my" meatloaf all the time. It's meatloaf at it's best with cheese and pressed ham all rolled up inside. Read more Serve it with mashed potatoes, corn and rolls and you can't ask for a more comforting meal! See less
Ingredients
- 2 lbs lean hamburger shopping list
- 1/2 chopped yellow onion shopping list
- 1/2 chopped green pepper shopping list
- 1 8 oz can tomato sauce shopping list
- 2 eggs shopping list
- 2 slices bread, torn into small pieces shopping list
- garlic powder, salt, pepper to taste ( I never measure ) shopping list
- a few shakes of Worchestershire sauce shopping list
- 2 pkgs Carl Buddig (or similar brand) chopped, pressed deli-thin ham shopping list
- Approximately 12 slices American cheese shopping list
How to make it
- Mix all ingredients except the deli-thin ham and cheese together with your hands - don't over mix or hamburger will get tough.
- On a long piece of wax paper or foil, pat the meatloaf mixture into a rectangle about 11 1/2" x 22".
- Place the deli-thin ham slices on the meatloaf to cover, slightly overlapping edges.
- Place the cheese slices over the ham and leave some area between the cheese slices, you may need to cut some slices in half. - Check the picture. Leave extra room with no cheese or ham at short end of meatloaf.
- Using the wax paper or foil, start rolling from one end as you would a jelly roll.
- Roll slowly and press together as you roll.
- Smooth out the final seam and pinch the ends together.
- Place in a 13" x 9" pan or a loaf pan
- Cook at 325 degrees for 1 hour.
- Some of the cheese will leak out of the meatloaf, but it's really good spooned back on the slices.
Patted into 11 1/2 x 22 rectangle
