Mozzarella Stuffed Meatloaf

Since it's been too cold for yard therapy. I had a little kitchen therapy and this was very good.

I sub'd lean ground beef for the turkey.
I sub'd Lipton onion soup mix for minced onion (so I didn’t add any other "salt")
I used fat free grated mozzarella cheese.
I added canned petite diced tomatoes drained
I added black pepper and italian seasoning (just a shake over the top)
I drained the spinach.
My bread crumbs were "italian".

Since I made small meatloaf balls instead of a loaf, I cooked for 45 minutes. I did let stand for 10 minutes.
