POTLUCK CASSEROLE



Potluck Casserole image

This recipe is from the early 1960's and is among the first comfort foods which I prepared as a young inexperienced cook. Cooked green beans may be substituted for the corn. I do not remember where I found the recipe. At that time, I was very proud of preparing such a tasteful dish. I have not used the recipe for several decades. I am posting in Zaar in order to prevent losing it.
