Peel off top sheet of waxed paper. Be sure that meat layer is even and has no holes. Keeping edges free of any toppings, arrange chopped spinach evenly over meat, and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese; top with grated Mozzarella cheese. Starting at end furthest from you, carefully lift waxed paper and begin rolling the meat inward toward the opposite end. Continue to lift the paper and peel it back from the meat rolling as tightly as possible. Use waxed paper to help support meat as it is rolled to the opposite end. Press ends and edges together to seal. Place on casserole dish with seam on bottom. Bake at 350° F 1 hour or until thermometer inserted in center of loaf registers 160°.

This is great with bow tie pasta (prepared as package directs) topped with the following: a jar of chunky garden sauce mixed with a jar of pizza sauce. Heat sauce mixture and spoon over pasta. Serve with additional Parmesan.

• Carefully brown the rolls on all sides in a frying pan. Place in a large pot with the beef stock.

• Make your gravy from the drippings by mixing the flour and butter and adding it slowly into the beef stock until it reaches the desired consistency. Serve with red cabbage and potatoes or spaetzle. You can also serve the potatoes that have soaked up all the delicious juices and held together the rouladen.
