old school cafeteria

As I grew up this was my favorite meal on the school lunch menu. As my kids grew and their meal menus changed I made this at home so they could enjoy a piece of my growing up. These can be made in the oven or done on a grill. make them many and put them on crackers as an appetizer. This recipe is over 40 years old. I ate them...
