Submitted by diner524

"Another recipe posting for safe keeping that I found in TOH magazine. This is a very economical and filling dish. Can also make it lighter by subbing light cream cheese, sour cream and cottage cheese."

Mmmmmm, what a yummy dinner here at the homestead. It was a pure comfort evening for us and we enjoyed this while watching Pirates of the Caribbean :D. The recipe is simple, hearty and the servings are quite generous. I really don't think I would change anything.

Delicious! This is so like the recipe I used to make and loved but lost the recipe. The only thing I will be changing next time, and there will be a next time, is adding some Italian seasoning. That's the only thing missing. It made plenty for two...you could even get by on serving it to three. Thanks so much for posting this recipe. I'm so happy I found it. :)
