Hi Mel - this recipe sounds tasty - thanks! . I just stumbled upon your blog from the link on $5 Dinners. Also was wondering where you got the widget "this day in history" from? My husband would love this for his blog. Thanks!
This looks good! I make something similar - I don't use green peppers or carrots, I use peas and cream of mushroom soup instead of cream of celery. This looks good though, I'll have to try it!
Thanks for sharing!
