Most folks are surprised to see inside this meat loaf. But this versatile vegetable pairs nicely with the ham and cheese. - Diane Burling, Pingree, North Dakota. Ingredients:
2 eggs |
1/4 cup milk |
1/4 cup ketchup |
3/4 cup soft bread crumbs |
1-1/2 teaspoons salt, divided |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano |
2 pounds ground beef |
3 cups frozen chopped broccoli, thawed and drained |
1 package (2-1/2 ounces) thinly sliced deli ham |
1/3 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the eggs, milk, ketchup, bread crumbs, 1/2 teaspoon salt, pepper and oregano. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well.
2. On a piece of heavy-duty foil, pat beef mixture into a 12-in. x 10-in. rectangle. Top with broccoli to within 1/2 in. of edges. Sprinkle with remaining salt. Top with ham. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a short side and peeling foil away while rolling. Seal seam and ends. Place in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish.
