This is an awesome potluck dish. Very tasty and can be a meal in itself. Make sure you are serving a lot of people though - it feeds 20+!

I made this recpie for the first time for a fellowship this weekend with 13 couples. It was a HUGE hit!! It makes a very big batch and there was only one small serving left at the end of dinner. At least 5 ladies ask me for the recpie! My husband loved it too! The recpie is super easy, affordable, makes a lot, no risk of someone else bringing the same dish (till you share the recpie), and will be a big hit! I highly recommend this one!!

I made this and got raves! My sis-in-law asked me for the recipe. She said she'd substitute the sour cream with yogurt since she's lactose intolerant. I used lite sour cream. It was fantastic!
