- 1/2 c. (2 oz.) shredded Mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 c. grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 Tbsp. dried parsley flakes

- In a large bowl, combine egg, 1/3 cup of the pizza sauce, bread crumbs and wheat germ.
- Mix in beef.
- On foil, pat beef mixture into a 9 x 8 x 3/4-inch rectangle.
- In a small bowl, combine the 1/2 cup Mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese and parsley.
- Spoon cheese mixture down center third of the beef mixture parallel to 8-inch side and to within 1/2-inch of edge. Use foil to bring short ends of beef together; seal edges, then ends of the roll.
