Description

This beef meatloaf cordon bleu comes with ham and provolone cheese rolled inside for a tasty surprise. It's a terrific blend of two classic recipes.

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

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2 In a medium bowl, mix together ground beef, bread crumbs, eggs, and onion. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Pat meat mixture out onto a piece of waxed paper, and flatten to 1/2-inch thick. Lay slices of ham onto flattened meat, and top with cheese slices. Pick up the edge of the waxed paper to roll flattened meat up into a log. Remove waxed paper, seal the ends and seam, and place loaf into a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
3 Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until loaf is no longer pink inside.
