Low Carb Italian Beef Roll Up Food

LOW CARB ITALIAN BEEF ROLL UPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• In a bowl, combine the ricotta, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, seasoning, and half the mozzarella.
• Mix well.
• Place a spoonful of mixture onto a slice of roast beef and roll up longwise with a shorter width (it isn't necessary to fasten these with toothpicks).
• Repeat with remaining beef.
• Spread 1/2 cup of sauce on the bottom of a 9 x 13 inch baking dish.
• Place the beef rolls in the dish, seam side down.
• Pour the remaining sauce over the beef rolls.
• Bake, covered, for 40 minutes.
• Add the remaining mozzarella cheese over the top and bake for an additional 5 minutes, uncovered, until cheese is melted.

BRACIOLA - BRACIOLE (ITALIAN STUFFED BEEF ROLLS)

Steps:

• Pound the steak very thin and cut into 4 pieces.
• Place a slice of mozzarella on each piece, then top with parmesan, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
• Roll each piece up tightly and secure with a string.
• Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet and brown the rolls evenly on each side.
• Drop them in your favorite pasta sauce and allow them to simmer for 2 hours or until tender and cooked through. (The meat will add a wonderful flavor to your sauce!).
• Remove the strings and serve.
• (Alternative: Assemble and brown the beef rolls the night before and store them in the fridge. Then drop the rolls and the sauce in your crockpot and cook on low for 8 hours the next day).
