Blue Ribbon Recipe by

My mother made this recipe way back in the day. It came from my elementary school's cookbook ( a fund raiser) and we always loved it.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

The combination of flavors in this casserole make this one mighty tasty meal. And it's relativity easy to prepare. The perfect recipe when you want an "easy dinner". If you want to pump it up a bit, just add a bit more beef.
