BOLOGNA SPREAD

BOLOGNA SPREAD




2 LBS. OF BOLOGNA

1/2 PINT OF MIRCLE WHIP OR HELIMANS MAYO

1/2 JAR OF SWEET RELISH

SWEET PICKLES, CHOPPED FINE

CHEDDAR CHEESE

ONIONS, IF YOU LIKE CHOPPED FINE

BOILED EGGS IF YOU LIKE CHOPPED FINE



Procedure



Grind the bilogna up in a food processer or have it done at the store. Add the pickle relish and Chopped pickles for crunch. Add the Mircle Whip. Some people use the whole pint jar of Miracel Whip in this.This may take more just work with it. Then add the onions if you like. I would put them in right before serving as sometimes these make it taste bitter. I leave this out. You can also add finely shredded Cheddar Cheese and boiled chopped eggs also to this. But I don't like the eggs in it. Make sure it is kept ref. until almost ready to serve. When making the sandwiches for the party put a thin layer of Mircle Whip on each piece of bread, this keeps the bread from being soggy. Then put the mixture on the bread. You can also spread wet paper towels over the sandwiches to keep them from drying out just don't get the towels to wet. It is more spreadable if left out a short time before putting on the sandwiches.2 lbs. of bologna will make a very big bowl of this stuff. It is so good and most people eat at least 4 sandwiches. So always make plenty.

HOW HIGH WILL THE ELECTRIC BILLS GO

It is 11 degrees here. Our electric has been running and just won't cut off. I thought it may have tore up so I called some of my friends and they are having the same problem. So don't go and change it over to emer. heat. I even went and read up on problems with central heat and found out it could be not going off enough because of our filter. So we changed it. It seemed to help it. But it was not that dirty just so cold outside. I did learn one thing new. Don't never run your air if it is under 50 degrees outside. It said that by doing this you could ruin your central air. I sure did not know this. My daughter done this around Christmas from where we had been cooking and it got so hot we flipped it over on air to cool off. I don't know if it was 50 outside or not. Hope it never ruined anything.
I will sure hate to see our electric bill for Jan. some of our friends bills was $355.00. Now that is enough to buy your groceries for a month. And a lot of the people don't have enough income to pay these bills. I guess we may all have to go back to coal. But it is around $100.00 a ton now. So we can't win for losing. I also found out that if you have a fireplace don't burn fresh wood in it as it will stop it up. Use last years seasoned wood. That I did not know. So it just goes to show you are never to old to learn something new. I pray that everyone can stay warm and just don't be out unless you have to. Let someone know if you go outside. You may fall and they may think you are where you were going and not think to check on you and you would freeze before you know it. Make sure the dogs water is fresh. They have to drink just like us. Add some warm water to their buckets or bowls because it is so cold coming out of the sink it will be cold on them trying to drink it also.

Drain on paper towels and wipe out the skillet. Return the sausage to the skillet (off of the heat) and add the cream cheese. Stir together until the cream cheese is melted. Open the tube of crescent rolls and unroll onto a work surface. Press together the seams of the triangles leaving the three "scored" rectangles. Cut each rectangle into two squares, making 6 squares to work with. Press the squares out slightly creating more surface area. Put approximately 1/4 cup sausage cheese mixture in the center of each square. Pull corners up over the center and twist creating little pockets. Twist and press the seams to make sure they are all sealed. Place on a baking sheet or baking stone and bake in a 350 degree oven for 20-22 minutes. Serve warm.
