Recipe by The Giggle Box

A yummy vegetarian dish my MIL made for us one night. My hubby enjoyed this immensely and asked for the recipe. She got it from The Outer Banks the Bountiful cookbook. The recipe claims to be enough for 6 side servings, but my MIL says that it is enough for 2 to share for a main meal. She also says that she has not had any success doubling this recipe.
