Growing up in southern MN, this hot dish was on regular meal rotation for supper. Filled many hungry bellies. Love it. And still do. It was my girls favorite meal after a cold spring rowing practices. Hot, comforting, and calories, calories, calories.

I moved to California in the early 1970's and was exposed to California food for the first time. Thought I might starve. Lettuce that wasn't iceberg with fake red french dressing? Cioppino? Cheese not wrapped in plastic? Avocado? OMG could not get it past my lips. But amazingly, second time trying all of these new, strange to me foods, I found I liked them. A lot. But Amy's hot dish is still in my winter meal rotation - usually with cream of mushroom soup, though. Try it - you might like it.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
