"Haven't made this one yet, but this sounds like something a die hard Yooper Packer fan would serve to a crowd for Sunday football!"

Super Bowl Winner! Tastes like "a touchdown!" We "punted" since we didn't have all the fillings called for, which the special team "rushed" and "tackled" to their mouths with great enthusiasm. Made two loaves, fitted to my loaf pans, cooked one (no leftovers or should I say "turnovers"?), froze the other one (the reserve team). And guess what? I'm a Packer fan, too....and I even know what a Yooper is, too!
