Growing up in the country yrs ago, we made this and loved it; I just made it again and found it is still as good as when I was a kid who didn't realize she was poor because she was happy on the farm....We couldn't afford the ham for it so we used our version of the poor man's steak and ham...good 'ole bologna....Brings back memories of the 50's and 60's!!
