This was so easy and so good! The celery added a nice flavor and texture to the dish. Sort of tastes like a corndog without the stick! Thanks Mysterygirl for posting another winner!

I like to make new dishes for potluck so I tried this recipe. Everyone thought it was great and thought it was a fun and different kind of casserole. You need to add Ketchup or BBQ sauce on the finished casserole to bring out the flavors - just like with corn dogs on a stick.

This was a huge let down for my family. I think if there was not as much sage, it might be ok. But not one single person in my family liked it. I don,t mean to be negative, but honestly, this dish was awful.
