bacon wrapped turtles - what's on your grill today?

Handmade ground beef patties are topped with sharp cheddar cheese and then wrapped in a bacon weave before the Hebrew Nationals are inserted as the heads, legs and tails. Place them on a rack, cover loosely with foil and then put them into an oven heated to 400 degrees. Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the bacon is done - cooked through and a little crispy, but not too crunchy.

It sounds YUMMY! A lot of my favorites, but I'd never be able to keep it all down....too much bulk, wouldn't work. :(

 Those are ADORABLE

Not my creation.  Someone emailed this to me.

Bacon Cheese Turtle Burger
Mmmmmmm bacon...............

Handmade ground beef patties, topped with sharp cheddar cheese, wrapped in a bacon weave.

Then the next step, add hotdogs as the heads, legs and tail.
Next step? Place on an oven rack, covered loosely with foil and baked for 20-30 minutes at 400 degrees.

A little crispy, not too crunchy...just how a turtle should be, no?

So cute, I'm not sure I could bite into it. Or cut a head off, or cut into a tummy.

These are just too cute to eat. And I think my daughter who doesn't eat meat would probably have a fit. LOL.

how do you get the hotdogs to stay on?

You just made me so hungery!   5 more days on my crapy pre-op diet.

i guess the burger meat kinda holds them in.  or, its the bacon blanket.  dunno. 
but, hey, you'll be able to try them out for yourself soon enough.  monday is your big day?  wishing you a must uneventful surgery and we will be swinging critters for ya. 
good luck! 

thanks!  Yes, I can't wait until Monday.
