Mock Turtle

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Cut a round of beefsteak about one and a half inches thick, cut to form a pocket, season with salt and pepper and fill with turkey dressing. Sew up the end and fasten slices of fat bacon on the roll with toothpicks and bake, basting often. Add a little boiling water the last half hour and before serving thicken gravy with a little browned flour. Remove bacon and tooth- picks before serving. — Mrs. George McDougall, Williams, Ariz.
