Submitted by Debs Recipes

"My husband says this dish is one of his top two favorites! You can tell that's true with just one look at the battered condition of my recipe card. It appears as though I've made this dish at least a hundred times! I originally found the recipe in a Pillsbury Bake-Off Cookbook at the city library."

This is a easy side dish that looks as good as it tastes. I made it with a red pepper and together with the green onions, it was very festive!
