Hi Dorothy,
Head right over to my Spaghetti & Meatballs. It’s a traditional Italian-American recipe of meatballs made from ground beef served over pasta with spaghetti sauce—sometimes affectionately referred to as “gravy” in some Italian households!

Question
Back in the 1990′s I collected Easy Everyday Cooking recipe cards. There was a recipe for ‘cheesy chicken roll-ups,’ with pounded chicken breasts stuffed with spinich, and I think ricotta & mozzarella. I secured them with toothpicks and remember browning in skillet, after that my mind goes blank. There was a cheese sauce that was poured over the stuffed rolled breasts baked in the oven. I’ve been looking for this recipe for almost 5 years, since noticing that it walked off somewhere. Can you help?
