  1. Oh these are just scrumptious. I'll admit I ate way too many. I took the advice of kiwi and doubled the filling, but I think that is a little much, because it doesn't give you much space to get a good roll of the dough. The flavors were so good, although I did leave out the caraway seed. I also added 2 finely chopped jalapeno peppers to spice it up some. Just wonderful little snacks to have. Thanks DuChick for sharing this one. Made for SSC Pet Parade.
     
  2. I made the filling for these and it wasn't nearly enough to be spread out even quite thinly over the required amount of dough, luckily I had more bacon/cheese and onion so I made a second batch and this double amount was only just enough to be spread evenly over my rolled out dough. I will be making these again, but if you want more than just a sprinkle of filling in each one then I'd suggest that you add in a lot more too. That said, once these got to the table our guests devoured them and were very pleased with the taste. No leftovers is a very good sign. LOL. Please see my Rating System: 4 excellent stars for a tasty and easy recipe, one that I will be making again (with a note on my copy of the recipe that more filling is very popular here) Thanks!

I am... ~a mother of 2 kids (19 and 22) who are extremely picky eaters. The mere mention of "healthy" sends them running in the opposite direction. They prefer the creamy, cheesy, fried stuff that they weren't brought up on! ~a wife of a wonderful man who fights an expanding waistline and will lovingly eat most anything I set before him. Everything is 5 stars to him. :) He's the easiest customer a cook could ask for! ~a teacher who tends to reach for comfort foods to relieve stress. I am a middle school reading specialist. The miracles I see on a daily basis keeps me going! But it's also stressful, so keep me away from the cookie jar! I really have to fight off the sugary, fat-laden stuff that has no worth beyond the momentary comfort in my mouth. ~and I'm also a daughter who was brought up on home cooked meals back when calories meant nothing and taste was everything! That is an idea built into my system that's hard to shake! My mother raised 8 kids (I'm #7) on her home-cooking and I always teased her that she didn't raise a single skinny kid! I luckily inherited her great love of cooking and baking. (I miss you Mom!) ~finally, I'm "mom" to the best Bichon in the world. He is Quincy, our kid in a dogsuit. He's 13 years old, but still a puppy to us. <img src=http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/264017/Quincy%20run%20small.jpg> Below are photos I've taken of some of my favorite recipes found on Recipezaar: <embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" src="http://w265.photobucket.com/pbwidget.swf?pbwurl=http://w265.photobucket.com/albums/ii223/duchick/5b275464.pbw" height="300" width="400"><a href="http://photobucket.com/slideshows" target="_blank"><img src="http://pic.photobucket.com/slideshows/btn.gif" style="float:left;border-width: 0;" ></a><a href="http://s265.photobucket.com/albums/ii223/duchick/?action=view¤t=5b275464.pbw" target="_blank"><img src="http://pic.photobucket.com/slideshows/btn_viewallimages.gif" style="float:left;border-width: 0;" ></a> <style>body{background:url("http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/ii223/duchick/lakehouse_cupcake.jpg?v=0");background-repeat:repeat;}</style>
