"I am always asked for this recipe when I serve it. Serve with crackers. I have always used a deep, round bowl to make the mold in. It should be about a 3 cup capacity. Cooking time is actually time in refridgerator chilling."

Bristol, Virginia

I live in a small city in southwest Virginia. We have been here for 22 years and love being near the mountains. I have three kids that keep me busy 24/7. I love cooking for my husband, but am constantly battling the picky eating kids at mealtime. I originally joined when this site was called recipeZaar to put my recipes into meal menus to rotate on a regular basis. Hopefully, to take the brainwork out of food shopping, menu planning and preparation. The problem is that I have found so many new recipes I want to try here I am going to end up with 100 menus! I guess that isn't so bad, variety is a good thing.
