I made this for dinner quite often when my kids were growing up. It seems that with a large family, it's hard to find something that everybody likes. This was one that seamed to satisfy everyone. Before I got married, Emma gave me a recipe file box filled with some of her favorite recipes. This was one that she included from Mary.
