This is a try and true recipe! When I was a young mom, we didn’t have a lot of money and so I had to get creative in the dinner department. I would make this several times a month and my kids loved it!

My son and his cute wife lived with my in-laws for a couple of months until their house was being built. Zac would make dinner for his grandparents every night. One night he made this and they asked him where he got the recipe. I had totally forgotten about this recipe until then.

You probably have everything in your pantry to make this and your family will love it! Total comfort food!
