• 8 thin slices of beef
• 1/2 cup bread crumbs
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup parsley, chopped
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• salt and pepper to taste
• 8 slices of bacon

Minced Beef Recipe

• 1 lb ground beef
• 1/2 onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 cup beef broth
• 1 can diced tomatoes
• 1 tbsp tomato paste
• 1 tsp dried basil
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

Beef Olives

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.

Mix together the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic, parsley, and olive oil in a bowl.

Lay each slice of beef onto a flat surface and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spread about 1 tbsp of the bread crumb mixture onto each slice.

Roll up each slice tightly, tucking in the sides as you go. Secure each roll with a toothpick and wrap each one with a slice of bacon.

Place the onion and carrot in the bottom of a baking dish. Place the rolls on top and pour the beef broth over them.

Cover the dish with foil and bake for 1 hour, or until the beef is cooked through and tender.

Minced Beef Recipe

In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

Add the beef broth, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and dried herbs. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.

Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 30 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and the flavors are well combined.

Serve hot with your choice of pasta, rice, or vegetables.
