The first time I made this casserole, my son begged me to make it again soon. That was more than 20 years ago, and it's still a favorite among family and friends. When I serve it at a luncheon, I add a fruit salad and warm breadsticks.—Vi Manning, Spring Hill, Florida

Daughter found this recipe as she was looking through some of ToH books. She insisted we make it. Easy to make. Next time we will be adding mushrooms just to add another dimension to the dish.
