It feels wrong giving this recipe out.

Every time I make this for someone they instantly get addicted to it, like I am (and I have been an addict since the 90’s). It’s like this dish gets implanted in your brain and when you crave it, nothing else will do, you HAVE to get this in your belly ASAP. I think it’s technically a casserole, but this is the most elite casserole of them all. It’s the Ferrari of casseroles.

My momma is a phenomenal cook and growing up she would make this pretty often because everyone adores it! She would even make it for our birthday dinners, it’s that good. It’s one of the only dishes that has stood the test of time in my family and we all still agree on it. I have even gotten my husband hooked now!

Serve this on a bed of mashed potatoes and a side salad, you know, for balance.

Let me know if you give this one a try, enjoy!
