How to make it

  • Directions
  • 1
  • Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees.
  • 2
  • Make four good-sized hamburger patties, nice and round and thick. Top w/ single slice of sharp cheddar cheese (this is optional, if you don't want cheese).
  • 3
  • Wrap each beef pattie in bacon strips, making a basket weave as you go. Cover entire pattie.
  • 4
  • Next, take the hot dog halves and make turtles' legs, head and tail. Cut the one for the tail at a diagonal on the end, so the tail looks "pointed". In the legs, put a few tiny 'slits' in the ends, so they will look like feet w/ claws after they bake.
  • 5
  • Line a baking sheet (with sides on it!) with foil, and place a baking rack over the foil. Arrange your "turtles" on the baking rack.
  • 6
  • Cook for 30 - 40 mins., in your pre-heated oven.
  • A little crispy, not too crunchy ... just the way a turtle ought to be, right?

    Cute...now, just as a heads up...you don't have to number your directions, the program pretty much takes care of your spacing and you are making me scroll too much :)
