- 1 (10 ounce) bag washed spinach leaves
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 pound ground pork
- 3 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 1/4 cups bread crumbs
- 1 cup grated Romano or Parmesan cheese
- salt and pepper to taste
- 6 slices provolone cheese
- 6 slices prosciutto or ham, thinly sliced
- all-purpose flour for dusting
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cups red wine
- 2 cups water
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Place spinach in a microwave safe bowl with a splash of water. Cover, and microwave until the spinach has wilted, about 5 minutes. Drain and allow to cool.
- In a large bowl, mix together beef, pork, eggs, bread crumbs, and Romano cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Divide into two equal portions, and roll each into balls.
- Place a 15-inch long piece of plastic wrap on your work surface and lightly sprinkle with flour. Place one of the balls onto the plastic wrap and pat into a thin, 8-inch by 10-inch rectangle. Cover evenly with half of the spinach and 3 slices of prosciutto, then shingle three slices of provolone running along the edge facing you.
- Using the plastic wrap to lift the meat, roll the loaf starting from the cheese side into a firmly packed spiral, peeling away the plastic wrap as you go. Make a second loaf with remaining ingredients.
- To bake, pour wine into a broiler pan bottom. Oil the slotted top with some of the olive oil before placing the loaves on and brushing them with remaining oil. Cover loaves with a sheet of aluminum foil and bake in preheated oven for 40 minutes.
- Remove the foil and pour water into the pan. Continue baking for another 35 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F (72 degrees C). Allow to rest 10 minutes before slicing into 1-inch thick slices to serve.
