  • Excellent for parties.It went quick and was asked for the recipe.Sorry,,,my little secret.LOL

  • This recipe is OUTSTANDING.we made 20 of them for each table for my daughter-in-laws wedding shower..they were gone in a heartbeat! A quick suggestion, add about 1/2 cup to 1 cup FINELY chopped walnuts...this was the BEST! We add Chopped walnuts to the recipe...EXCELLENT!

  • This is a great recipe. I make it vegetarian by leaving out the ham, and then roll it in finely chopped walnuts to give it a professional presentation. So easy to make, and everyone always ask me to make it again.

  • This recipe is great with the Buddig Corned Beef and 1 tablespoon of horseradish.
