Notes from the Cook: I made this recipe because I needed something at the last minute for a covered dish gathering. I had no idea if it would work, since I just used what I had on hand at the moment. I was very surprised when everyone asked for the recipe!! I had to think what all I had put in it. Now you can try to add things you prefer to get the kind of taste you want!!
