Hominy Pie - Casserole

This is a recipe from The Grange Cookbook I got in the 70's. When our daughter was a toddler, she tried to flush it down the toilet! When she went out on her own, I gave her the cookbook along with my very first one my dad gave me. It is very versatile. I'm listing the original recipe, but through the years I have added different things to it, such as left over squash casserole, Velveeta instead of cheddar, soy sauce, or beef bouillon to make a soup rather than a casserole. I serve it with tortilla chips.
