No.Way. This is my hubby’s favorite casserole, too! Except I put peas in it. Apparently his mom made it all the time when he was growing up – they call it More Casserole because everyone always wanted more!
Oooh – sounds like a good one to try. I hope it’s not blasphemous if I add some veggies in – I’m horrible at making a side-dish, and I have tons of veggies that need to be used. I think mushrooms would be delicious, and it sounds like bell peppers would go well…
This is a variation of a very old recipe that we called Jackpot Casserole. The version I knew used cream style corn and Worcestershire sauce. Yummy!
