Preparación

1. 1

   Heat oven to 350˚F. In a large bowl, mix ground beef, sausage, egg, ½ cup marinara sauce, bread crumbs, & pepper.

2. 2

   On wax paper, pat mixture into a 12x8" rectangle. Sprinkle evenly with cheese; gently press into meat. Top with spinach. Starting on one end (I rolled mine starting on the 12" side) roll up tightly, using wax paper to start roll & tucking in spinach leaves; seal ends. Place seam side down in an ungreased 9x13" glass baking dish.

   Bake 1 hour. Spread remaining marinara sauce over top. Bake 15 minutes longer or until thermometer inserted in meat loaf reads 160˚F. Let stand 5-10 minutes before serving.
