Ingredients:
- 8 slices of thinly sliced beef (carpaccio or any thinly sliced beef cuts)
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Filling:
- In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, and cooked spinach. Mix until well-combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
2. Assemble the Beef Rolls:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Lay the beef slices flat on a clean surface. Place a spoonful of the spinach and cheese filling onto each slice of beef and roll it up tightly.
- Secure the rolls with toothpicks to prevent them from unraveling while baking.
3. Bake the Beef Rolls:
- Place the beef rolls in a baking dish, seam side down.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the beef is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
4. Serve and Garnish:
- Remove the toothpicks from the beef rolls and arrange them on a serving plate.
- Garnish with chopped green onions and fresh parsley (if using) for added flavor and color.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
