1 tablespoon garlic (finely chopped or crushed fresh) |
1/2 green pepper (chopped into 1/4-inch pieces) |
7 slices bread |
1 1/2 lbs ground beef |
1/2 lb pork (ground) |
1/2 lb veal (chopped) |
2 eggs (beaten) |
1/3 cup parsley (fresh, chopped fine) |
1/2 teaspoon rosemary (fresh or dried crushed) |

1 tablespoon ketchup |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
