" Rouladen usually have bacon inside along with the onions and dill pickle - I made them without bacon and they were still very tasty. Rouladens are a traditional German dish frequently served with spaetzle. The meat roll slices are thin slices of Flank steak or inside round about 6 inches wide by 8 inches long. You can buy them ready cut at almost any butcher shop. The gravy in this recipe is lovely so you will want to serve them with mashed potatoes or a crispy bun to soak up the gravy. Soaking up the gravy is not part of this being a lighter recipe. I used a horseradish mustard and it added a nice zip."

These came out excellent...the hubby didn't even know there wasn't any bacon in them...I used beef consomme instead of the beef broth...it has a stronger flavor that we enjoy...served it with noodles for the yummy sauce...made for "Alphabet" tag game at FFF
