This recipe is such a hit it's "traveled" all over the country! My mother originated the recipe in Pennsylvania...I brought it to Texas when I married...I'm still making it in California...and my daughter treats her friends to this "oldie" in Colorado. It's hearty yet simple to prepare.

My family enjoyed this meal. It's simple, healthy and quick to prepare. Nine times out of ten, you will have all the items in your kitchen to prepare this one; even if you have to substitue an item or two.

I was short on time so I used a boxed scalloped potato mix instead of cutting up potatoes. I added the sauce mix to the boiling water . It tasted fantastic.

I love this recipe, however I always add a layer of peeled, thinly sliced carrots and bake it in a 350 oven for 90 minutes. I usually leave it covered for the first hour and then uncover for the last 30 minutes. I like to serve it with buttered peas and fresh baked bread or rolls. We live on the farm and during harvest this is a favorite standby because you can reduce the oven to warm, cover and hold until the harvest crew comes in.

I found this recipe a little too plain. I followed the recipe exactly and found it too runny so I thickened the juice because I did not want soup.

Good, simple comfort food. Easy to make and a great warmer-upper for a cold winter night.

Our family recipe for shipwreck is like this but also includes a can of drained and rinsed kidney beans.  Very good.
