Burgers for a Bunch Recipe

Rating 5

I used to make this often when my children were small and I worked full-time. It's easy to prepare the night before, then pop into the oven shortly before suppertime. We still like it—even as a cold snack!—Nancy C. Latham, Moses Lake, Washington

I have been making this recipe since 1973 and just love it! I misplaced the recipe I was given in the 70's and decided to "google" the recipe, and there to my surprise, it was!! So glad that I found it. It is a very simple recipe, but everyone seems to like it.

Thanks to Google for directing me to Taste of Home!
