Meat Loaf Roll - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen, chopped broccoli
    2 lb. hamburger
    2 eggs
    3/4 c. soft bread crumbs
    1/4 c. catsup
    1/4 c. milk
    1/2 tsp. salt
    1/4 tsp. pepper
    1/4 tsp. oregano leaves
    1 tsp. salt
    1 pkg. Italian sausage, cooked (don't burn skin) and cut into slices
    Mozzarella cheese slices, each 3 x 3-inches, cut diagonally into halves (optional)
Preparation
    Rinse frozen broccoli to separate.
    Drain.
    Mix hamburger, eggs, bread crumbs, catsup, milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt, pepper and oregano.
    Pat hamburger mixture into rectangle, 12 x 10-inches, on piece of aluminum foil, 18 x 15-inches.
    Arrange broccoli on hamburger mixture to within 1/2-inch of edges.
    Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt. Arrange sausage on broccoli. Roll up rectangle carefully, beginning at 10-inch side and using foil to lift. Press edges and ends of roll to seal.
    Place on rack in shallow roasting pan. Cook, uncovered, in a 350\u00b0 oven for 1 1/4 hours. Overlap cheese on top.
    Cook just until cheese begins to melt (about 1 minute longer).
    (Center of meat loaf roll may be slightly pink due to sausage.)
    Garnish with celery leaves, if desired.
