Ingredients
- 1 Pound Lean Ground Beef
- 1 Pound Velveeta Cheese
- Garlic Powder, to taste
- 1 Loaf Pepperidge Farm Cocktail Bread
- 1/2 Pound Hot Italian Sausage
- 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
- Salt, to taste
Method
- Brown and drain the meats.
- You want the meat to be in fairly small pieces.
- You can either break it up with a fork or put it in a processor for a few quick pulses once it is browned and drained.
- Put the cheese in a micro-proof bowl large enough to add the meat later.
- Cover the bowl and microwave it until it is melted.
- Add the meat and mix in the seasonings.
- Cut the bread in half.
- Toast one side of the bread under the broiler.
- Spread about 1 Tablespoon of the meat and cheese mixture on the toasted side of the bread.
- Bake on a cookie sheet at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
- This can and should be made ahead! It takes a bit of time to get the bread all spread.
- It's a great Saturday project.
- You can quickly freeze the mungs after you spread the toasted bread.
- Put them on a cookie sheet, in one layer, in the freezer.
- After about 15 minutes, put them in plastic freezer bags.
- When you are ready to use them, take out the number you need and bake as above.
- Keep the unused mungs in the freezer for the next time!
