Memorable Moment:

I had made this for my husband and myself a couple days after after Thanksgiving. My granddaughter, Coralie , happened to stop by after dinner that night and asked if she could try a bite. She loved it so much, she came over the following week so I could teach her how to make it for her family. We had so much fun - and she kept saying, "Oh grandma, you're the best cook in the world!" That made it taste even better for me!

Place the stuffing in a bowl, and add just enough hot water to moisten the bread.
Put a heaping tablespoon of the stuffing on a slice of turkey, and roll it up. Put the roll in the center of the pan with the flap of the turkey slice facing down so as to not unroll. Place all the rolls in the center of the pan in a row. Put the cut potatoes around the rolls and pour the prepared gravy on top of it all. Pour the fired onion ring s on the top and Bake @ 350F for 45 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Serve with cranberry cauce on the side.

Memorable Moment:

We've gutted our home and the three of us need to live in our 600 sq ft office in our back yard for now. It's been 5 months. We have a 7 x 7 bathroom. We've just gotten a kitchen sink. With no oven or stove, we decided to buy an electric skillet. Our meals are either fast food or they're microwavable. We're wanting to eat healthier, now that my husband is joining the police force and we're wanting to have a baby someday soon. So, we're thrilled to find healthier recipes. This was Thanksgiving leftovers!

Every female that is a mother in my immediate family (two moms, a sister and sister-in-law have made it for me and it is always a hit). My family loves it, but what is so funny is that no one can remember who started it. More than one takes credit for it. Nevertheless, it is wonderful and is truly a whole family favorite!

Pineapple Cheeseburger - Paul from Texas

CBN.com — Tue, 16 Dec 2008 08:27:20 GMT

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes
Servings: 2

Ingredients:

4 sesame seed buns
2- 1/2 lb hamburger patties (pref; lean)
2 slices of fresh pineapple
2 slices of munster cheese
Fixings: mayo, mustard, lettuce etc... whatever you like

-------------------------------

Cooking Instructions:

Grill in pan or on George Foreman type grill or on grill outside or in oven. Preference: all are good, but I like George Foreman grill. Grill hamburger patties first, until done. Place pineapple slices and cheese on burger on grill for just a minute or two until pineapple browns and cheese melts. Put buns with butter on grill. Top burger with desired fixings and ENJOY!

It's very easy; very flexible; very good... go for fries, 'rings', or chips on side

Memorable Moment:

I stopped in at a drive in and they had pineapple cheeseburgers; never had one; tried it; loved it; improved on it at home...
