3 eggs
1 cup dry bread crumbs
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped green pepper
1/4 cup ketchup
2 teaspoons minced fresh parsley
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 garlic clove, minced
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
5 pounds lean ground beef
3/4 pound thinly sliced deli ham
3/4 pound thinly sliced Swiss cheese

Tomato Pepper Sauce:
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
2 celery ribs, cut into 1-1/2 inch-julienne strips
1/2 medium green pepper, cut into 1-1/2-inch julienne strips
1 garlic clove, minced
1 to 2 teaspoons Olive Oil
2 cups chopped fresh tomatoes
1 cup beef broth
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt

In a large bowl, combine the first 11 ingredients. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. On a piece of heavy-duty foil, pat beef mixture into a 17-in. x 15-in. rectangle. Cover with ham and cheese slices to within 1/2 in. of edges.

Roll up tightly jelly-roll style, starting with a short side. Place seam side down in a roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 160°.

In a large saucepan, saute the onion, celery, green pepper and garlic in oil for 3-5 minutes or until tender. Add tomatoes, broth, bay leaf, sugar, salt and thyme. Simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes. Discard bay leaf.

Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into sauce. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Drain meat loaf. Serve with sauce. Makes 15-20 servings.
