White Castle Hambugers



Ingredients:
1 pound Ground Beef
One large package Velvetta Cheese or American Cheese
One package onion soup mix

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350-degrees.

In a large saucepan, brown beef and drain well.

Cut up Velvetta or American cheese into small squares or cubes, add to ground beef and heat over a medium heat. Stir until all of the cheese is melted, be careful not to burn the bottom!

In a greased casserole dish, pour contents and bake in oven for 15-20 minutes until browned and creamy.

30 Minute Strawberry Freezer Jam



Ingredients:
2 cups prepared fruit (about 1 quart fully ripe strawberries)
4 cups sugar, measured into separate bowl
3/4 cup water
1 box fruit pectin

Directions:
Rinse clean plastic containers and lids with boiling water. Dry thoroughly.

Stem and crush strawberries thoroughly, one layer at a time. Measure exactly 2-cups prepared fruit into large bowl. Stir in sugar. Let stand ten minutes, stirring occasionally.

Mix water and pectin in small saucepan. Bring to boil on high heat, stirring constantly. Continue boiling and stirring one minute. Add to fruit mixture; stir three minutes or until sugar is dissolved and no longer grainy. (A few sugar crystals may remain.)

Fill all containers immediately to within 1/2-inch of tops. Wipe off top edges of containers; immediately cover with lids. Let stand at room temperature 24 hours. Jam is now ready to use. Store in refrigerator up to three weeks or freeze extra containers up to one year. Thaw in refrigerator before using.

How To Measure Precisely: To get exact level cup measures of sugar, spoon sugar into dry metal or plastic measuring cups, then level by scraping excess sugar from top of cup with straight-edged knife.

Recipe makes about five (1-cup) containers.
