Stir in 4 tablespoons Bisquick, salt, garlic, ketchup, sour cream and cheese. Heat through.</p> <p>Stir 1 1/2 cups Bisquick and water to a soft dough, turn onto floured cloth-covered board. Knead. Roll out dough and cut into 3-inch diameter circles. Place 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons Spam mixture on each circle, fold over and seal. Prick holes with fork into each turnover. Place on ungreased cookie sheet and bake at 400 degrees F for 15 to 20 minutes.</p> <p>Serve with tomatillo salsa.</p> <p> Tomatillo Salsa Verde </p> <p>To cook the tomatillos, you can either roast them in the oven, or boil them. Roasting will deliver more flavor; boiling may be faster and use less energy. Either way works, though boiling is a more common way to cook the tomatillos.<br /> Ingredients</p> <p> * 1 1/2 lb tomatillos<br /> * 1/2 cup chopped white onion<br /> * 1/2 cup cilantro leaves<br /> * 1 Tbsp fresh lime juice<br /> * 1/4 teaspoon sugar<br /> * 2 Jalapeño peppers OR 2 serrano peppers, stemmed, seeded and chopped<br /> * Salt to taste</p> <p>Method</p> <p>1 Remove papery husks from tomatillos and rinse well.</p> <p>2a Roasting method Cut in half and place cut side down on a foil-lined baking sheet. Place under a broiler for about 5-7 minutes to lightly blacken the skin.</p> <p>2b Boiling method Place tomatillos in a saucepan, cover with water. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove tomatillos with a slotted spoon.</p> <p>2 Place tomatillos, lime juice, onions, cilantro, chili peppers, sugar in a food processor (or blender) and pulse until all ingredients are finely chopped and mixed. Season to taste with salt. Cool in refrigerator. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17154#post-381364 Sat, 16 May 2009 09:38:20 +0000 GreatDane 381364@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Ohhhh, sounds like fun!
