Meat Loaf Roll Florentine step by step
Add butter and onions to frying pan. Sweat onions on low heat until they begin to turn brown. Add spinach, cover and cook until nicely wilted. Put spinach in a colander in the sink to remove any water and to let cool. In a bowl, add meats, eggs, crushed Ritz, sage, Italian seasoning, salt & pepper. Mix thoroughly. Spoon the mixture on a long sheet of foil that has been sprayed with oil. Pat it out into a 10 X 8 Oblong. Layer the cheese evenly over the meat layer. Then layer the drained spinach evenly On top.
