Chicken meatloaf with potatoes and sautéed spinach

I’ve been not feeling the cooking lately and it’s not good!

I’m the type of person who wants to have ingredients available at all times..  I know it isn’t that easy and not having a desire to cook really has me at a disadvantage so…

The other day I shopped for groceries and decided a chicken meatloaf might be enjoyed.  We will see!

1 lb.  ground white meat chicken 

3/4 cup to 1 cup breadcrumbs 

I small onion grated fine

2 cloves minced garlic 

1 tsp. Salt

1 egg beaten

1 tsp. Dried parsley 

Grated pecorino Romano on top when serving.(optional)

Filling

1 large russet potato cut in slices

1 cup chopped spinach seasoned with olive oil, salt and minced garlic

Mix chicken with seasonings.  Set aside 

I’m a small pot cover sliced potato with water and cook until it partially cooked.  Salt water!

Using a large slotted spoon remove potato to cool.

In the same water you cooked the potato place chopped spinach.  Bring to a boil and drain.

Sauté spinach in olive oil and minced garlic.

Place half of meatloaf mixture in a small but deep baking dish.  Spray with cooking spray first. Note:  use your hands to press down half of mixture.  Layer potatoes next and then place chopped sautéed spinach.

Using the rest of chicken mixture ( make a large size patty) to top of spinach.

 

Brush slightly with oil and bake uncovered approximately 1 to 11/2 hours or until you put a fork in center and the potatoes are tender and you see no raw chicken.

Enjoy!

I’m having a salad tonight with this meal! Yummy
