This recipe is really good. With meat prices going up and with families pinching pennies, this is expensive and really quite easy!

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 lb. ground beef
• 2 eggs slightly beaten
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/8 tsp. pepper

Stuffing:

• 1/2 dry bread crumbs
• 1/4 tsp. sage
• 1/4 tsp. marjoram leaves
• 1/3 cup chicken broth

Directions

Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl combine beef, eggs and salt, mix well. In a small bowl, combine all stuffing ingredients, set aside.

Divide beef into 6 portions. Using waxed paper, I use about 12 pieces as you will take one ground beef portion and put on one piece of paper and press into a 4 inch square. Remove top piece of waxed paper then add 2 Tbsp. stuffing, spread to within half in of edges. Use your wax paper as a guide, roll it up like you would a pumpkin roll. Then seal seams and sides putting seams on the bottom of your 12x8 inch (2 qt.) baking dish. Do the same with all the rest. Bake 20 minutes.

While they bake, make your gravy as directed on the package (1.87 oz. pkg of brown gravy mix, although I often use more). Pour over meat for another 20 min. Although mine were not always quite square, it still worked fine for me. Sometimes when I was in a hurry, I would just drop the stuffing in the middle, spread it out a little and roll it up and it still worked.

Helpful hints from a harried mom. Enjoy however you make them.
