If you’re looking for something a bit different to do with mince, then look no further than this delicious syn free meatloaf! With cheese and ham rolled into the middle, along with a good helping of spinach for some added speed food, it’s perfect for family dinners, dinners for two, or to portion up for lunches and have cold throughout the week! Not only is it a delicious and syn free meal, but it’s also a very cheap one! In total to make the whole meatloaf cost me about £2.30 and saving money on meals right now is a big priority as I’ve got a holiday in Thailand to pay for (and slim for!) in a month!
I really loved this dish, and I’ll definitely be making it again soon! I split the meatloaf between two of us (using my full Healthy Extra A portion) because we were both starving but it easily serves four people (using half of your Healthy Extra A) and it was perfect with some homemade chips and some veg. Simple, tasty, syn free and filling…what more could you want in a meal?!? Needless to say it went down very well with my other half too, so I’m sure there’ll be no complaints when I make this one again.
As a concept, the dish is kind of like one big inside out hamburger, in fact you could just as easily make it with bacon to make the similarities even bigger! I love mince, but sometimes the options can seem a little limited. When you’ve exhausted how many times you can make bolognese, shepherds pie and burgers in a week, this is the perfect recipe idea to add to your repertoire! Give it a go and I’m certain you won’t be disappointed!
The swirl in this meatloaf is very easy to create, all you need is a bit of cling film! Once you’ve spread out your mince and laid your fillings on top you simply roll the lot like you would roll a Swiss roll, making sure to tuck the first edge in and under as you go. By using the natural pull of gravity and the smoothness of the cling film you’ll end up with a tight meal roll in no time. Simply neaten up the edges and push the ends back down over any fillings that are showing and you’ll have yourself something that’s ready to go into the oven! Like many of my dishes, this can be ready in under half an hour, making it perfect for mid-week dinners, or days where you really don’t have much time but still want to eat something interesting!
