This is a twist on a classic meatloaf. The mushrooms lighten up the meatloaf adding meaty flavor, while the spinach adds color and nutrients to the mix. This can be served a main dish, or you can make mini meat loaves as an appetizer. This dish can be easily doubled and prepared ahead and frozen either cooked or uncooked.
1 10-oz box cremini mushrooms
1 medium onion
2 cloves garlic
1/2 TBSP canola or vegetable oil
1 10-oz box frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1 egg
1/2 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
1 tsp salt, divided
1/2 tsp pepper
2 lbs chopped meat – beef or beef chicken mixture
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F or 350 degrees F with convection.
Put mushrooms, onions and garlic in a food processor fitted with the S blade. Process until it is a paste-like consistency.
Heat oil on medium heat in large frying pan. Add mushroom mixture and cook, stirring often until starting to brown, about 7-10 minutes. Add 1/2 tsp salt and remove from heat. Allow to come to room temperature.
In a large bowl, combine spinach, mushroom mixture, egg, breadcrumbs, onion soup mix and remaining salt and pepper, mix well. Add chopped meat, mix gently until just combined.
Line a baking dish with parchment paper. Form a loaf with the meat mixture in the center of the pan.
Bake for 45-50 minutes in the center of the oven. Remove from oven and allow meatloaf to rest 5-10 minutes before slicing.

Is onion soup mix required? It is not listed in ingredient list. It is mentioned in directions.
Hi, I am going to look into that for you. But, no it is not required. You can leave it out or put onion powder instead.
