This is one of my favorite childhood "Treet"'s. My granny Peg went to Hawaii when I was eight years old and when she came back she used to make this for dinner for me on special occasions. In 2008 I asked granny to send me a copy of the recipe, I thought of it every now and again and wanted to be able to share it with my family, well was I surprised when an envelope showed up at the house a few days later with a copy of the recipe, in my OWN handwriting!! When I was a teenager I got in trouble once and she made me write recipes on 3x5 cards for her as punishment, I had forgotten all about it.

Made Granny Pegs Treet Casserole today, it would have looked better with the pop of green color that the bell peppers would add but my granddaughter Brianna was not in the mood for peppers. I also was going to have it over white rice but she nixed that idea as well, strange how a 3 year old can stifle a creative flow!! :)
