I got this recipe from a cooking group on freezer meals. It comes from the book Frozen Assets Lite & Easy by Deborah Taylor Hough. My family loves this, and bonus, if you make it ahead and freeze it, it is a very fast meal on a night you don't feel like cooking! This recipe makes a lot, so I usually freeze half and bake half when I make it. We had this again last night for dinner and I wanted to post it so everyone else could enjoy it too! This is good served with sour cream and salad.
