Baked, Stuffed Beef Heart with Parsley Stuffing image

Ths recipe was requestd by Sandi Moorhead. My British mother-in-law taught me this recipe, but she never measured anything so I guessed at amounts and it always tastes wonderful. You can adjust it to your own taste. This works equaly well with pig heart and venison heart.
