                         -----FOR THE BEEF ROLLS-----
    1 1/2  pound         Top round -- VERY thin sliced
      1/2  cup           Fresh basil -- minced
    2                    Roasted red peppers -- diced
    4      tablespoon    Parmesan -- fresh grated
    2      tablespoon    Parsley -- minced
                         Salt and pepper
    6                    sl            Proscuitto -- very thin
                         -----FOR THE MARINADE-----
    2      tablespoon    Olive oil
    2      tablespoon    Parsley -- minced
      1/4  cup           Balsamic vinegar
    2      tablespoon    Pepper -- black fresh ground
    2      Cloves        garlic -- finely minced
      1/4  cup           Olive oil
 
 Place beef slices on counter or flat surface. (Get your butcher to slice them; he
can do it so much neater than we can!) Sprinkle with the red peppers and parsley.
Cut proscuitto to fit each beef slice and place over peppers.  Sprinkle with
basil leaves, Parmesan and pepper. Roll tightly and tie in two places with
kitchen twine to secure, or use toothpicks. Combine all marinade ingredients and
pour over beef rolls in non-reactive pan. Let set at room temp for an hour, or
refrigerate for several hours. Remove from marinade, reserving marinade.  Heat
1/4 cup olive oil in large heavy skillet.  Brown beef rolls on all sides. Add
marinade and simmer for 20 minutes.  Or you can put into tightly covered baking
dish and bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes.  Adapted from a recipe by Della Masia
(TXBG93A).
