This recipe was served to me by my favorite daughter-in-law (they both are) many years ago. Needless to say it has become a family favorite. I hope it becomes one of yours too.

    SOMETIMES JUST TO SPICE IT UP A BIT WE ADD A DICED JALAPENO PEPPER OR TWO. I LIKE TO ADD A RED ONE AND A GREEN ONE FOR THE ADDED COLOR BECAUSE WHILE THIS RECIPE IS VERY GOOD, IT LACKS COLOR WHICH WE LOVE.
