"Very good, and different from other casseroles." - Calla Ferre

"The interesting thing about this casserole is that women love it, while men seem to not like it that much.  It is one of my favorite dishes as is, but you can also use it as a base recipe, substituting other meats for shrimp and and/or adding chopped vegetables.  I particularly like adding chopped ham, onion, and frozen peas and carrots." - April Ferre
