I have had this recipe for so many years. I actually first got it out of one of my little cookbooks, you know those small pamphlet like soft cover books? I want to say it was from Pillsbury but I'm not 100% on that.
Anyway, it is a recipe that I have kept on hand for many years, since my children were toddlers, and I remember making it quite a few times for us when we had family visiting. I know my brother in law really enjoyed it too.
If you're looking for a quick yummy Friday night treat, then this is it. I love the fact that you can change up the ingredients to suit your taste. Don't like the chicken? Use ham. Don't want green pepper, omit. Change it up, fix it how you like but do give it a try, you will most definitely enjoy it.
