When I was a little girl I spent many happy weekends at my grandma's house. Grandma's Aunt Fanny - who was then in her seventies - would visit occasionally, and would always bring this dish - her speciality! This is an old classic recipe (Aunt Fanny made it in the 1960's and 1970's) that has stood the test of time! We all loved it! Representative photo by Bing; next time I make it I will 'try' to remember to take a picture!
