Recipe Notes

When my cousins and I get together, we compare our interpretations of this recipe, handed down by Grandma to her daughters over the years. Nobody can get it exactly right, but this one is pretty close. Try adding crumbled bacon for a treat! Bon Appetit!

delicious, but...

I just made this and it was delicious, but it didn't look very appetizing. Did anyone add celery and/or carrots for color?
