Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
-
Place the meat mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and pat it into a rectangle shape, about 1/2 inch thick.
-
Spread a layer of marinara sauce over the meat, leaving a border around the edges. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese, chopped spinach, black olives, roasted red peppers, and sliced pepperoni.
-
Starting from one end, carefully roll the meat into a log, using the parchment paper to help lift and roll. Tuck in the ends to seal the filling inside.
-
Brush the top of the meat loaf with a little more marinara sauce for extra flavor.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
-
Remove from the oven and let the meat loaf rest for a few minutes before slicing.
