Got this recipe from my "food compatible" best friend and it is a family favorite, as well as an oft-requested pot luck favorite! I keep a bottle of Ranch Dressing on the side ... just in case! This recipe, as is, makes A LOT! You can easily half the recipe and have plenty for family and friends! Hope you enjoy it!
