I felt like changing things up this weekend and put a different spin on pasta. I grabbed some Rouladen cut beef and the veggies we enjoy in a regular spaghetti or Lasagna sauce. My man was a bit iffy about this dish at first but when it came to dinner time guess who became a fan 😊 it really is a fantastic and affordable way to change up spaghetti night!
- 1 pkg Beef Rouladen (usually comes with 3 pieces of meat)
- 1 medium green bell pepper
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 1 large carrot
- 1 small zucchini
- 1 medium onion
- 1 cup chopped spinach
- 2 – 3 cups Fire Roasted Marinara or more if desired
- Grated mozzarella and parm to taste
- Pour marinara into slow cooker and heat to high.
- Julien all the veggies except the spinach, you just want to roughly chopped that and mix it into the marinara right away. Put the julienned veggies aside.
- Unpack the beef and lay it out flat on a clean workspace.
- Add desired amounts of veggies on the beef, I used 4 of each vegtable. For present purposes I left the veggies sticking half way out of the beef.
- Starting on one end roll the beef around the veggies so you have a nice tight bundle. Continue until all the beef and vegetables are used.
- Place the bundles in the marinara and spoon sauce over the bundles.
- Cook on high for 5 hours or 8 hours on low.
- Remove bundles and place on a baking dish. Cover with desired amount of cheese and broil until melted.
- Serve over penne or pasta of choice.
Yum !
