Pound the slices of meat as thin as possible. Make a mixture of bread
crumbs, egg and oil. Lay meat out and lightly salt and pepper each
piece.

Place some of the mixture on each piece and spread covering most of
the meat except the edges. Roll and secure with a toothpick. Lightly
brown each in a bit of butter and oil. When browned place in oven
proof dish. To the browning pan add tomato sauce and mix to get all
flavor from bottom of pan.

Pour over meat and bake in oven at 350°F for 45 minutes. Turn often
to prevent drying.

Serving suggestions:

Mashed potatoes with a touch of garlic while mashing. The sauce makes
a wonderful tasty gravy. A bright vegetable such as carrots or
broccoli. Crust bread and a salad.
