This is another of Great Grandma Kennedy's recipes. From when she was a child living in Canada. This is made for lunch or dinner. It can also be made with ground pork sausage for a breakfast meal. *** Feel free to add or remove spices to your taste... (I like a little more cloves, pepper and poultry seasoning.
