Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350° F.
Mix all ingredients except spinach and cheese in a large bowl.

Cover a rimmed baking sheet with a piece of waxed paper. On the waxed paper, shape the meat mixture into neat rectangle about 9" x 13", keeping the thickness even. spread the chopped spinach over the meat. Crumble the cheese and spread over the spinach.

Starting from a short side, use the waxed paper help roll up the meat, jelly-roll fashion, into a log. With moistened fingers, press and pat the ends shut and seal any cracks in the log.

Remove the waxed paper and bake in pre-heated oven about 45 min., or to 160° at the center.
