I thought of a new series I could do.  I am always finding new recipes and because I love finding things and telling you about it, I thought of a new series.

Sursee Gal's Test Kitchen

This way when I find a new recipe or make something that is finger-licking good or I find a new way to make cooking a Sursee, I am going to share it here.

I know that when someone shares a no-fail meal idea with me, it is like winning a prize. Sometimes we get in a rut and need a little encouragement to try something new. So today, let me tell you about this most awesome recipe.

I have heard and made these dinner rolls with sandwich meat, but was intrigued when I saw that this version was actually little hamburgers.  Craig showed it to me on a Facebook post someone made about Super Bowl Sunday food and thought it looked good, so I tried it.  And it was good.  I shared it with some gals at Creative Night recently, and it was a hit with them too.

In fact the picture below is from one of my friends who sent it to me after making these yummy sliders for her high school senior's Mock Trial Team.  Yes! Success

Sursee Gal's Test Kitchen was born and will be raised right here in this little corner of the blogging world.

So now and then I will share tried and true recipes I have made and throw in some new ones I find on my cooking shows,  in my cookbooks and from my gal pals.  We all need a little inspiration sometime.
