1 jar of grape leaves

2 lbs of ground beef

1.5 cups of long grain rice

1 medium onion chopped

1 cup of chopped parsley

Salt and pepper to taste (Approximately 2 teaspoons)

Lay the grape leave on a cutting board smooth side down

Use a spoon to place a scoop of filling in the middle of each grape leave

Close the sides over the filling and roll to desired shape

(Note : if grape leave is too small, add a second on top and roll as one)

Add rolled grape leaves to a pot. Place 2 dinner plates upside down over the grape leaves to keep them from floating.

Add hot water to cover all the grape leaves and cook on medium-low heat for 45 minutes
