My father-in-law, Paul,was helpful in the kitchen,and as his wife was a teacher and she got home close to supper-time, he would prepare this meal. We loved his nickname,Bumpa, which is what my son called him, and we continued to refer to him that way forever. This is rather like the American chop-suey, but not so spicy.
