Stuffed meatloaf is a traditional Italian dish, very tasty and rich in flavors. Its preparation takes a little time, but the final result is definitely worth the wait. The meatloaf is stuffed with sausage, rice, Swiss chard, and Parmigiano cheese, which blend together to create a creamy and flavorful filling. It is a perfect dish to serve as a second course at a special lunch or dinner.










The veal meat must be minced and the rice already boiled
Clean and wash the Swiss chard several times
Remove the stem and blanch only the green leaves in salted boiling water for a few seconds
Drain them, dry with absorbent paper, and finely chop them
Trim and chop the onion
In a pan, heat a tablespoon of oil and a tablespoon of broth and sauté the chopped onion for five minutes
Boil three eggs for five minutes
Drain them and immediately run under cold running water to stop the cooking: the yolks should remain soft
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees
Remove the casing from the sausage and crumble it
In a bowl, mix the veal meat, sausage, rice, three tablespoons of parmesan, onion, thyme, the remaining egg, egg white, salt, and pepper
Mix thoroughly to combine all the ingredients
Grease a sheet of parchment paper with oil
Transfer the meat mixture onto the parchment sheet
Place a sheet of plastic wrap on top and, with a rolling pin, roll out the mixture to a thickness of 2 cm, shaping it into a rectangle
Remove the plastic wrap
Spread a layer of Swiss chard over the rectangle of meat, sprinkle it with the remaining grated parmesan, and line the hard-boiled eggs in the center lengthwise
Using the parchment paper, roll the meat, brush it with oil, and scent it with two sprigs of thyme
Completely wrap the meat in parchment paper and tie it with kitchen twine
Place the meatloaf in a baking dish and bake
Cook for twenty minutes, then lower the temperature to 180 degrees and continue cooking for another thirty minutes
