There are many recipes of this type out there but you wrote: This was My Mother's recipe, and well, this was My Mother's recipe as well. Perfect, easy, everyone loves it, great side, and I would give you more stars because it's that good and easy and it was your Mom's. -
Delicious! I wanted a leetle more spicy taste, so I marinated in lite Italian dressing for 2 hours. PERFECT! with a pot roast and veggies. Made for Cool Beans! event in Cooking Photos.

This recipe is the best, and I make it all the time. Since my husband doesn’t like green peppers, I always substitute an equal amount of onion. Still tastes delicious.
