This is a quick, easy recipe that I found in my archives. Â This is representative of the very old style of Amish cooking, because there is no "cream of mushroom", saltines, or Velveeta in this one. Â While very Plain, this is a classic farmhouse recipe that would have been used by an Amish cook back in the days when they were a much more insular culture. This recipe comes to us from an elderly Amish woman in Charm, Ohio (you guessed, it her name is Byler) Enjoy!

Agreed, it sounds tasty!
Gerry
do you need to cook the hamburg before mixing with other ingredients?
Kevin
Yes, Gerry, you do, sorry for not making that more clear and for taking so long to respond!
