Bacon Wrapped Beef Liver Roulade - Stuffed with Spinach & Feta Cheese

This recipe for bacon wrapped beef liver roulade, stuffed with spinach & feta cheese, is super delicious and easy to make. The flavors complement each other perfectly. In addition, it's a very nutrient dense and therefore satiating dish. Of course, you could also use other stuffings

CourseMain Dish
Keywordbacon wrapped, beef, feta cheese, liver, organ meat, oven baked, roulade, spinach, stuffed stuff

Servings2 roulades

Prep Time10 minutes

Cook Time30 minutes

Ingredients

300gram beef liver2 pieces
100gram spinachpre-cooked
100gram feta cheesecut into dices or cuboids
200gram baconabout 16 slices

Seasonings

1pinch Salt
1pinch Pepper
1pinch Cayenne pepperoptional

Instructions

First, preheat your oven to 170°C (340°F)
Put the beef liver on a cutting board and beat the pieces with a meat hammer to make them flatter. You don't need to flip them, it is enough if you just hit from one side. Also, make sure that you don't hit too hard as the meat already is pretty tender and you don't want to create holes
Next, add the seasonings, also from one side only - this will be the inside. Then, spread the spinach (e.g. with a spoon) on the pieces
Afterwards, put the feta cheese on top. Place it centered and only on one half of the liver pieces. This way it is easier to roll them up
Now, roll the liver up. Start on the side with the cheese to make sure it is in the center of the roulade
After that, create a bacon weave of 4-5 slices on top of each roulade. Lift each one up with one hand while wrapping the bacon around the bottom with the other hand
If you have small packets, wrap another layer of bacon around them to make sure everything is nicely wrapped without any big gaps and place the roulades on a baking tray with parchment paper
Finally, put the baking tray into the oven and bake the roulades for 25-30 minutes until the bacon becomes brown and crispy

Recipe Notes

You probably could skip the meat hammer step if your beef liver pieces already are pretty flat (about 0.5cm / 0.2in of thickness).

If they are way too thick, lay them on the cutting board.
Then, cut from one side with a sharp knife until you nearly reached the end of the other side.
Now, you can simply fold out the pieces and have thinner ones.

At step 3 I used frozen spinach which I thawed & pre-cooked in the microwave for about 3 minutes while beating up the liver:

Of course, you may also use different stuffings.

One idea that I've had was pizza stuffing with tomato paste or fresh tomatoes, mozzarella cheese & Italian / Mediterranean herbs (oregano, rosemary, thyme). Maybe with some additional ground beef, pepperoni, fried chicken or even pulled pork.

Avocado Omelette – With Spinach & Cream

Avocado Omelette - With Spinach & Cream

This avocado omelette with spinach & cream is very saturating. It is stuffed with healthy fats and nutrients, easily prepared within 30 minutes. In addition, this is an awesome breakfast and a good dish for preparing in advance and having it for lunch at work.

CourseBreakfast, Main Dish
Keywordavocado, cream, eggs, omelette, oven baked, pan fried, spinach

Servings2 people

Prep Time5 minutes

Cook Time30 minutes

Ingredients

30gram coconut oil
1 onionssliced, half rings
1 avocadosliced
400gram spinachcooked
100gram creamheavy
7 eggs

Seasonings

Instructions

First, melt the coconut oil in an oven-suitable pan at low-medium heat on the hob and preheat your oven to 170°C
Fry onion in coconut oil for about 5 minutes, until golden brown
Next, add avocado to the pan and fry for just about 2-3 minutes while stiring
Then, add the spinach and also stir-fry it for 2-3 minutes
Pour the cream into the pan, add all seasonings and mix everything
Now, drop the eggs on top, stir everything for 1 minute and finally, put the pan into the oven for 15-20 minutes, until everything is solid

Recipe Notes

You can check if the omelette is done by poking into it with a chopstick.
If you pull out the chopstick and it is clean your omelette is done. If there are moist residues from the eggs on the chopstick the omelette needs a few more minutes.

I used frozen spinach that I thawed in the microwave before adding it to the pan.
If you use fresh spinach you don't necessarily need to precook it, but give it a few more minutes of frying in the pan.

I like to eat this dish with some cream cheese on the side.

You may also add shredded cheese on top right before you put the pan into the oven.
