Apricot Kielbasa Slices

Redneck Epicurean's Note:

Every once in a while we have a soup and sandwich night at church. Sometimes, appetizers end up on the buffet. I found this in an old TOH and plan to try them out on the church crowd.

I think this has a little too much of the apricot preserves. It's too sweet and the preserves give it a weird texture. We tried it with orange marmalade and liked it better.

Easy and tasty for either weeknight or company dinner. I too have tried this recipe with orange marmelade and freshly shredded ginger and the results were excellent. If you are in a pinch, this can be placed in a crockpot under low settings for several hours.

I ended up doctoring this with orange marmalade to make a more definate flavor..and used hot dogs sliced on the diagonal. I pan fried those before adding them to the sauce. Served as an appetizer and people loved it.
