this was very good with some slight changes...not because I thought it needed it....but because I was looking for something specific. We had recently eaten out at an Italian restaurant and my husband had an amazing dish of veal bundles stuffed with mozzarella and prosciutto in a mushroom wine gravy. These were the closest thing I found to it. So I made this recipe up to the point of adding the white wine, and instead substituted a mushroom gravy (which does have white wine in it already) to recreate what I was looking for.
