# Instructions:
01 -
Set your oven to 350°F and grease a 9x13 pan with cooking spray generously.
02 -
Cook the minced shallot in a bit of oil over medium heat until soft and slightly browned, about 2 to 3 minutes.

In a big bowl, toss together the turkey, mushrooms, softened shallot, breadcrumbs, eggs, ketchup, salt, and marjoram.

Blend the mixture by hand gently until it's all evenly combined.

On a 12x16 piece of parchment, press the meat mixture into a rectangle that's about 10x12 inches.
07 -
Cover the surface of the meat with a nice, even layer of shredded cheese.
08 -
Spread the chopped spinach leaves evenly over the cheese.
09 -
Starting from one of the short edges, gently roll up the meat using the parchment to help keep it together. Peel away the paper as you roll.
10 -
Close the ends neatly and lay the roll seam-down in your dish that's been prepped.
11 -
Pop it uncovered into the oven for 45 minutes to cook.
12 -
Take it out and brush the glaze you made earlier all across the top and sides.
13 -
Return the dish to bake for an extra 10 to 15 minutes, until it's fully done.
