This casserole is just plain old fashioned comfort food. It's super easy to make and can be customized to suit your own tastes. Wonderful to eat on a cold evening and the leftovers are yummy ! The recipe I am sharing is the basic recipe but each time I make it I add a little of this or that depending on what sounds good at the time.
