  • Don't overwork the meatloaf mixture: Overworking the meatloaf mixture will make it tough. Mix the ingredients together just until they are combined.
  • Use fresh spinach: Fresh spinach has a better flavor and texture than frozen spinach. If you are using frozen spinach, be sure to thaw it and squeeze out all of the excess water before using it.
  • Don't skip the cheese: The cheese adds flavor and moisture to the meatloaf. Use a good quality ricotta cheese for the best results.
  • Bake the meatloaf at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy crust on the outside of the meatloaf and keep the inside moist.
  • Let the meatloaf rest before slicing: This will help to keep the juices in the meatloaf and prevent it from falling apart.
