"This is really a meal in itself, rich and delicious, and doesn't need anything more than a green salad and beverage of choice."

This is soooooo good Evelyn. I made this instead of scalloped potatoes. A definite winner. -
I did a half batch to go with some chicken kievs. I've made potato gratins & tomato gratins before but never thought of combining the 2. What a great idea. Simple & can be made ahead of time which is a plus. Thanks for a keeper! -
I used turkey bacon instead of regular bacon and the casserole turned out awful. Maybe it would have tasted better without the bacon. -
Hi Evelyn, thanks for suggesting this for our casserole night. The dish went quickly and everyone enjoyed it. Comfort food to the extreme. I will be making this again, thanks so much.

OK, here goes. I live in Athens, Greece. I moved out here many, many years ago from Ottawa, Canada - so I am blessed in having two wonderful heritages!
I suffer from compulsive obsessive behaviour with regard to food and my psychiatrist thought it would be a good idea to find a 'society' where many have the same problem and try to find a cure.
So far, I've copied a couple of thousand recipes from this site and my psychiatrist has thrown the towel in and refuses to answer the phone when I call.
What did I do wrong?
Got 3 kids that keep me on the go - 10 and under at this point (2008) - I may not get round to updating this for a few years, so you'll have to do your own maths.
I teach English full-time and Greek Cookery part-time. I would like to make the cooking part of it full-time and the English Grammar part of it part-time.
That's all for now.
