Baked Meat Loaf Wellington Recipe
  • Prep: 20 min. Bake: 1-1/4 hours
  • Yield: 8 Servings
20 75 95

Ingredients

  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 cup meatless spaghetti sauce, divided
  • 1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1-1/2 pounds ground beef
  • 2 cups (8 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
  • 1 tube (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent rolls

Directions

  • In a large bowl, combine the egg, 1/3 cup spaghetti sauce, bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well.
  • On a piece of heavy-duty foil, pat beef mixture into a 12-in. x 8-in. rectangle. Sprinkle 1 cup cheese and parsley to within 1 in. of edges. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side and peeling foil away while rolling. Seal seam and ends. Place seam side down in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish.
  • Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1 hour; drain. Unroll crescent dough; seal seams and perforations. Drape dough over meat loaf to cover the top, sides and ends; seal ends. Bake 15-20 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reads 160° and crust is golden brown. Let stand for 5 minutes.
  • Using two large spatulas, carefully transfer meat loaf to a serving platter. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Serve with remaining spaghetti sauce. Yield: 8 servings.

I've made this many times and my husband and I really like it. It looks fancy, but is pretty simple to make.

What a great twist on an old idea! Super easy to make; I used my own favorite meatloaf recipe instead of this one and it turned out great.

My husband loves this meatloaf! Have made some midifications to it over time. We had crubled bacon, onion, bell pepper and garlic to the meat mixture just to flavor it up, but the idea is incredible and the crescent roll crust just makes it awesome!
