Ingredients

• 1½ – 2 lbs ground beef or ground lamb or ground turkey
• 1 large onion
• ½ – ¾ cup finely chopped fresh parsley
• 4 cloves garlic
• seasoning salt or salt
• allspice

Directions

1. Start by chopping up your parsley in a food chopper until fine. Do not use dried parsley.
2. Then put the parsley in a large mixing bowl.
3. Then cut onion up into pieces — doesn't matter how small just so you can fit it into the chopper and combine the garlic and chop away until fine — not pasty though.
4. Put the onion garlic mixture in the bowl with the parsley and add ground meat and spices.
5. Mix with hands until everything is well blended.
6. Pat the meat mixture down in the bottom of a 9x13 baking pan and broil in oven until top is browned, this will enhance the flavor, then take out of the oven.
7. Peel potatoes.
8. Slice tomatoes and potatoes into quarter of an inch in size and layer — potatoes first and then tomatoes will be top layer.
9. Sprinkle with a little salt—and bake in oven about 425 °F covered with foil for approximately 45 minutes to and hour — enjoy.
