AMISH HAYSTACK DINNER



Amish Haystack Dinner image

Based on a prize winner from Newman's The Hole in the Wall Gang Cookbook. This is a big hit with large groups of teenagers. Since it's "build your own haystack" there's something for everyone. Serve with dinner rolls for the unadventurous who would rather have a sloppy joe and salad. I also serve with bottled Italian salad dressing for those who want a "wetter" haystack.
