Remember when grocery stores had dishes, pans and books to buy if you purchased groceries in their stores. I have 3 books from a series, which I didn't finish buying the whole volume. It is The A B C's of cooking, by family circle. I sure wish I had followed thru and gotten the whole set. This is one of the amazing recipes...

I first tried this recipe because it sounded unusual and I was curious. To my surprise, it was actually very good, nice texture and taste! --NOTE-- Use a block of cheddar cheese and grate it finely. If you use packaged pre-shredded cheese it won't melt correctly when baking!
