INGREDIENTS

  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 3/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup spaghetti sauce or ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 pounds lean ground beef
  • 16 slices part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided
  • 4 ounces deli ham
  • Additional spaghetti sauce, warmed, optional

DIRECTIONS

In a large bowl, combine the first nine ingredients. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well.
    On a piece of heavy-duty foil, pat beef mixture into a 12-in. x 10-in. rectangle. Layer with six cheese slices, ham and six more cheese slices. Roll up jelly roll-style, starting with a short 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 70 minutes or until no pink remains and a meat thermometer reads 160°. Top with remaining cheese; bake 5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with additional spaghetti sauce if desired. Yield: 8 servings.
