Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
  • 1/2 pound ground pork
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 sheets puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 egg, beaten

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, milk, onion, garlic, parsley, thyme, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one sheet of puff pastry into a rectangular shape. Place the meatloaf mixture on top of the puff pastry, shaping it into a log along one side.
  4. Carefully roll the puff pastry around the meatloaf, sealing the edges by pressing together.
  5. Repeat the rolling process with the second sheet of puff pastry and remaining meatloaf mixture.
  6. Place both wrapped meatloafs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with beaten egg for a golden finish.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden and the meatloaf is cooked through.
  8. Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
  9. Serve the Meatloaf Wellington slices hot with mashed potatoes and your favorite vegetables.
