1 cup reduced-fat cheddar.

1 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt.

3/4 cup seasoned breadcrumbs.

13 -
1 oz fresh spinach, chopped.
14 -
1/3 cup ketchup.
# Instructions:
01 -
Set your oven to 350°F while greasing a 9x13 dish so nothing sticks.
02 -
Cook minced shallot in a lightly oiled pan until it's soft and slightly browned, about 2–3 minutes.
03 -
In a small bowl, stir all glaze ingredients until smooth and set aside for later.
04 -
In a big bowl, toss together the turkey, breadcrumbs, mushrooms, shallot, ketchup, eggs, salt, and marjoram.
05 -
Using your hands, gently but thoroughly blend everything until the mixture is even.
06 -
On parchment paper, pat the meat mixture flat into a roughly 10x12 inch rectangle.
07 -
Spread the shredded cheese over the surface of the meat evenly.
08 -
Scatter the spinach evenly on top of the cheese layer.
09 -
Starting from one short side, roll the meat mixture up gently, peeling back the parchment paper as you go.
10 -
Pinch the ends to seal the roll, then place it seam-side down in your greased dish.
11 -
Pop it in the oven, uncovered, and bake for about 45 minutes.
12 -
Take it out and brush the prepared glaze all over the loaf.
13 -
Put it back in the oven for 10–15 minutes until it's cooked fully.
14 -
Let it sit 10 minutes so it's easier to slice into 16 pieces.
15 -
Slice it up with a sharp knife and serve hot!
