Spam and cheese hot sandwiches

Grind together (or use food processor):

1 can Spam
1 small onion
1 green pepper
Chunk of Velveeta cheese (about the same size as Spam)

Mix well, spread on half a hamburger or hot dog bun, put on cooky sheet and broil 1-2 minutes; until cheese is melted. Watch these, do not leave, they burn under broiler very easily!
