  This is a dish for special occasions, but is easy to pull together on
a weeknight, too. Serve the spiedini on a bed of pasta tossed with olive
oil and garlic for the ultimate Italian feast!

*Veal Spiedini*
*from Campbell's Kitchen *

Prep Time: 30 min.
Cook Time: 20 min.

*Ingredients:*

1/2 cup Italian-seasoned dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup toasted pine nuts
6 slices prosciutto, cut into thirds
1 1/4 lb. veal scalloppine, cut into 18 pieces and pounded thin
1/4 lb. mozzarella cheese, cut into matchstick-thin strips
1/4 cup olive oil
3 cups PregoŽ Traditional Italian Sauce *OR* PregoŽ Heart Smart
Traditional Italian Sauce
1 pkg. (10 ounces) Pepperidge FarmŽ Mozzarella Garlic Bread
grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

*Directions:*
Heat the oven to 400°F. Stir the bread crumbs and pine nuts in a small
bowl.

Divide the prosciutto among the veal pieces. Top *each* with
*1* *tablespoon* bread crumb mixture. Divide the cheese among the veal
pieces. Roll up the veal pieces around the filling. Thread *3* veal
rolls onto *each* of *6* (6-inch) skewers.

Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the skewers and
cook for 3 minutes on each side. Pour the sauce over the skewers.
Reduce the heat to low. Cook for 15 minutes or until the veal is cooked
through.

Meanwhile, bake the bread according to the package directions.

Cut the bread into 2-inch diagonal slices. Serve the bread with the
veal and sauce. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese, if desired.

Serves 6.

If veal isn't available, look for pork scalloppine, or thinly slice
boneless chicken breasts and pound thinly.
