1 TBS Olive Oil
1 large onion, finely chopped
10 oz. pkg. frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. salt
1 cup fresh soft bread crumbs
1/2 cup grated romano cheese
1/2 cup whipping cream
2 lb. ground beef
2 large eggs
one 8 oz can tomato sauce
In a large skillet, heat oil and add onion. Cook on med-high heat for 5 min. Reduce heat to medium and cook until tender. Spoon half of onion into bowl. Add meat, eggs, 1/2 cups bread crumbs, 1/4 cup cheese, 1/4 cup cream and 3/4 tsp. salt. Mix just until blended.
To onion remaining in skillet, add spinach, nutmeg, 1/2 cup bread crumbs, 1/4 cup cheese, 1/4 cream and 1/4 tsp. salt.
Layer 1/2 meat mixture on bottom of a 9x9 casserole dish. Then add spinach mixture in the middle with the rest of the meat mixture on top. Put one can tomato sauce on top. Bake 1 hour 15 minutes at 375 degrees. Let meat loaf stand 10minutees to set juices.
*My Note: I usually don't have Romano cheese on hand, so I usually use Mozzarella or whatever kind I happen to have.
