Okay here's another one from my youth. It was a major family favorite and I'd made it for Bob and his Mom a couple of times. Through all of the moves I lost the recipe card but ya gotta love Google!!!
Thought I'd share this with you - it's such a simple dish, and just so satisfying. (wish I had a plate of it right now!)
