Savory Meatloaf - hamburger

Method

• In a medium saucepan, bring 1 1/2 cups water and 1/4 cup margarine to a boil.
• Stir in the contents of the stuffing mix.
• Remove from heat and let stand 5 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Chop the onion into very small pieces and put in a large bowl.
• Combine the remaining ingredients, beating the egg before adding it to the meat mixture.
• Stir the meat mixture about 5 minutes.
• This will give the meat a lighter texture and help it to stay together when rolling it.
• Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil.
• Spread the meat mixture in a thin layer (about 1/2 inch thick) on top of the foil at least a 1 inch border on all of the edges of the foil.
• Stir the stuffing with a fork.
• Spread the cooked stuffing on top of the meat leaving approximately 1/4 inch border on each of the long sides of the meat and about 2 inches on one of the short edges of the meat.
• Place the cookie sheet in front of you so that the short edge without the 2 inch border is directly in front of you.
• To begin rolling the meatloaf, carefully lift and roll the meat as you would a cake roll, using the aluminum foil to support it, carefully peeling away the aluminum foil and patching any cracks that appear in the meat mixture as you roll the loaf.
• Bake oven 1 hour.
