I have recently been trying to rely more on my old cookbooks and recipe cards (what we used in the days before Pinterest).  I love my cookbooks.  I have many from the 1950’s, 1960’s and little pamphlets put out by companies to promote their products.  I love reading them.  Some of the recipes especially the jello salads look scary to me but I think they are fascinating.  I may one day even give in and try one.

I was searching through my recipe cards the other night when I ran across this recipe.  I used to make this recipe about 10 years ago to take to a family New Year’s Eve party.  Everyone loved it but over time things changed and I hadn’t even thought about it in years.  I was so excited I thought it was time to bring this recipe back.

Verdict:

This is delicious!  If you like a bit of spicy try it with the banana peppers and sun-dried tomatoes.  If not maybe try the roasted red peppers.  The nice thing is you can customize this for your group.
