Stuffed Armadillo?s
(Aka Stuffed Flank Steak)

When my kid?s where little I made these Steaks and always told them that they where stuffed Armadillos because how they puffed up like the real ones. I know I know mean *L* but today they are 24 and 22 and still call them this. I will be adding occasionally recipes on things I teased my kids with. Hehehhe.

1 ?-2 lbs lbs of Flank Steak medium to thick cut, pounded with a tenderizer on both sides and cut in half horizontally (to make two steaks)

1 small chopped onion

1 teaspoon garlic powder

? teaspoon salt

? teaspoon pepper

1 box stove top stuffing mix made according to directions.

Heat oven to 350. Grease 9x13 pan lightly or use non stick spray. Pound steak on both sides with a
Tenderizer. Cut in two pieces horizontally to make two separate steaks. Make stuffing according to
Package directions. Add in onion, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Lay the steak out horizontally, take
Half of the stuffing and place over the steak, like icing a cake. Repeat with the other steak. Roll up the steak starting at the end. Tuck in the bottom flap and place in greased pan. Repeat with the other
Steak. After the steaks are in the pan use a knife and cut 2? apart. first horizontally then vertical to make a pattern on the steak. This will look like cubes. You also can tie the meat instead of cutting. Cover with foil for ? hour then uncover and bake another 15 min. These puff up making the aka Armadillos. *L* Makes 8 servings.

1 can of Crushed Pinapple (well drained)
1 can of biscuits

Mix butter, sugar, pineapple
place spoonful of mixture into muffin pan

*to avoid burning your muffin pan add a bit of water to any unused spots*

*I found this to work better for regular biscuits than the flakey or layered biscuits*
