Meat olives can be made with different fillings,today I opened the fridge saw the fresh mushrooms and decided to use them as a filling,with chopped parsley,garlic,asiago cheese and turkey ham slices.You can also use breadcrumbs,spinach,hard boiled eggs,ricotta,basil,minced chicken etc . The beef olives can be simmered in a stew or baked in a casserole,can be simmered in different sauces according to your taste.

  • 150g chopped asiago ,cheddar or cheese of your choice
  • seasoning

Method :

  • Mix the sauteed mushrooms,parsley,cheese & garlic and season well.
  • Lay the beef on the table and put a slice of ham on each then divide the filling over the slices.
