ITALIAN STUFFED BEEF ROLLS
The combination of spinach, artichokes and cream cheese is always a crowd pleaser. Add basil and a roasted red pepper sauce, and you have perfection on a fork!

- Season Well: Don't be afraid to season your dish with salt and pepper. This will help bring out the flavors of the ingredients.
- Cook the Meat Thoroughly: Make sure the ground beef is cooked all the way through before you add it to the spinach mixture. This will help prevent foodborne illness.
