Mixed Vegetable Casserole

I got this recipe from dear friend of ours, who passed away a couple of years ago. She always served this dish at her potluck dinners, and it still reminds me of her. I served it to my in-laws last night, and the entire dish disappeared, AND they asked me to make it again before they leave!
