OBTW, you asked about leftover hard boiled eggs...
We figured that one out at my Sis-in-Law's house...use them in a Braggiole(Brasciole).
I tried all day to find pics, but it was almost impossible to even find anyone on the net who knew how to make it.
It's a very thin 'sheet' of veal (or plain ol' round steak), pounded thin, with spices and a cheese/breadcrumb filling. Roll it up with a hard-boiled egg inside, sear it in a pan with olive oil, then cook slowly in your tomato sauce (Nanna calls it 'gravy').
It's a great meat side to go with your pasta instead of meatballs or sausage...

Okay, now for sure it's time to call it a night. Oh-Dark-Thirty comes awfully early down here.
We've got big-wigs from the Program Manager's office coming in for a 'visit', and there's just no rest when that happens!
ZZZzzzzzzzzzz...

That braggiole does sound good. Is that Italian?

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 for 45 min. 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 veg such as carrots or broccoli. Crust bread and a salad.

This?

That sounds so good. I have seen it prepared on some cooking shows. Sometimes they bread the outside lightly, some times they flour it with seasoned flour.
