Theo's Cannelloni

Today me and my Grandma made cannelloni and salad.
First we got the raw meat and started to cook it in a big pan.
Grandma looked after the meat while started on the bechamel sauce.
The sauce looked like pancake batter and then it started to thicken. Then we added cheese and it tasted nice and smooth.We saw that the meat was almost done and started to make the salad. In the salad we had white onion (left over from Theo's swag tomatillo salsa) lettuce, sweet peppers (yellow and red)  and mushrooms. After that we started to stuff the cannelloni shells.We put the cannelloni in the oven and waited... Then it was dinner!
Washing up!
