My Grandmother all way's made this recipe,for Thankgiving,Christmas,and Easter Sunday.When she became to ill to cook she made sure ,I took over the holiday cooking .One of my twin brothers,all way,s ask's for this as his choice of a dish....As I put it together and put it in the oven ,I still can see her as she fixed this dish....Some how it does not taste quite the same as when she made it for us all those years ago..
