  • Step 2

    Press the pork mixture into a rectangle shape about 1/2 inch thick on a sheet of plastic wrap.

    Scatter the spinach across the pork. Dice the mushrooms and arrange across the spinach. Scatter over the grated mozzarella.

    Use the plastic wrap to roll the long edge of the pork over on itself to create a log. Pinch the edges closed to tightly seal the filling inside. Refrigerate for 20 minutes to firm up.

    Don’t need to use a plastic wrap or roll. My mother used to make this recipe by taking half the meat and pressing into the loaf pan. Make a slight well in the middle and add the stuffing. Cover with the remaining meat and pat down. Dont need to refrigerate

      Probable overstuffed. It was difficult to close. I also used an angus beef pork blend. Vague on tomatoes so I used crushed fire grilled tomatoes. Paired with Keto Hasselback Zucchini recipe. Delicious dinner. Will make it again.

            Take the plastic wrap OFF once you've created a roll. Put into bake pan and cover with tomato...

            You take the plastic wrap off before you cook it. It help to form the loaf.

            When do you add the basil? To the meat mix? Chopped first?

              I added dried basil with the Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, etc. Then garnished with fresh basil after baking. I LOVE basil!

            This has become a family favorite. I sautéed the mushrooms first and covered each slice with a few extras. With a side of Keto friendly veggies and a simple salad, everyone is happy!

                  I have not found a print function on this app. So, what I do is copy the ingredients and then drop them into a Word document. Lite labor intensity but it works!

                        So good! Husband loved it too. Used half ground sirloin and half ground pork. Added red pepper flakes and pesto to the meat. This is a keeper!

                              So good! Even better the next day. I used half pork and half beef, since that is what I had on hand. I added the onion powder on the outside of the loaf because it didn't say to put it in the bowl. It worked. I used seasoned tomatoes (garlic, oregano, basil) for the topping. Definitely a winner in my house.
