The original old family recipe for this casserole called for the sauce to be made from scratch. Through the years, I developed this version that takes less time to prepare and still tastes great. It's an attractive main dish.

I found that 325 was not a hot enough oven; I ended up having to bake it twice as long, and it still came out lukewarm. The next time I made it, I set it at 350 and did not cover it. It was delicious and my family loved it!
