Cordon Bleu Meatloaf
Ingredients
  • 2 pounds extra-lean ground beef
  • 1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 4 ounces thinly sliced cooked ham
  • 4 ounces provolone cheese, sliced
Instructions
1
Begin by preheating your oven to a high temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 175 degrees Celsius.
2
In a moderately sized bowl, combine ground beef, bread crumbs, eggs, and finely chopped onion. Add a pinch of garlic powder, salt, and pepper to enhance the flavor.
3
On a sheet of waxed paper, spread out the meat mixture and flatten it to an even thickness of 1/2 inch. This will help you assemble the loaf more efficiently.
4
Layer thinly sliced ham and cheese slices on top of the flattened meat mixture. The key is to create a harmonious balance between flavors and textures.
5
Take the edge of the waxed paper and begin to roll the flattened meat mixture into a compact log shape. Press down gently on the seam to seal it.
6
Carefully remove the waxed paper, and use your fingers or a blunt instrument to press down on the edges of the loaf, sealing them tightly. Place the rolled meat log into a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
7
Bake the loaf in the preheated oven for an extended period of 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until it is no longer pink in the center.
