Yummy! This was so easy to make and the whole family loved it. Used Tartar Sauce That Makes You Scream... Oh Yes! and crushed organic stuffing mix cause I was out of breadcrumbs. Thanks, Molly, for sharing the recipe!

This was delicious. I had to use canadian bacon instead of the ham, since I forgot to get ham at the store while shopping. I also used Tartar Sauce That Makes You Scream... Oh Yes! (Tarter Sauce) for the sauce. :)
